Heat 7, 2016
Russell Davies welcomes competitors for the seventh heat in the quest for the nation's general knowledge champion of 2016.
(7/17)
Which artery takes deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs? Which actor was future Vice-President Al Gore's roommate at Harvard? And who wrote the novel on which the Hitchcock film Psycho was based?
Russell Davies puts these and a host of other questions to the latest contenders for the Brain of Britain 2016 title. The programme comes from the Radio Theatre in London, with the winner assured a place in the semi-finals of the contest later in the spring.
There'll also be the chance for a Brain of Britain listener to outwit the contestants with ingenious questions of his or her own devising.
Producer: Paul Bajoria.
