Heat 4, 2017

Another four contenders join Russell Davies for the latest heat of the challenging general knowledge quiz.

(4/17)
Which New York building was once described as the 'Mozart of skyscrapers'? And which type of meat takes its name from the Latin for 'to hunt'?

These and many other questions await the contenders in today's heat of the 2017 tournament, to decide who takes the fourth of the automatic places in this year's semi-finals later in the spring.

There's also a chance, as always, for a listener to win a prize by suggesting ingenious questions which will 'Beat the Brains'.

Producer: Paul Bajoria.
