Heat 9, 2022

Russell Davies is in the chair as four more contenders take part in the prestigious general knowledge quiz.

Russell Davies puts the questions to four contenders for the title Brain of Britain 2022, in the ninth heat of this year's tournament which comes from MediaCityUK in Salford. Will they be able to work out what connects Kermit the Frog, Red Rum and a Canberra jet bomber? Will they remember at which London hotel Oscar Wilde was arrested, or know the more familiar name of the painting sometimes called La Gioconda?

A place in the 2022 semi-finals awaits the winner today.

Taking part are:
Carol Bates from Nottingham
Carolyn Evans from Worcestershire
Gill Taylor from West Yorkshire
Scott Torrance from Dumfries.

There's also a chance for a listener to Beat the Brains with questions he or she has suggested.
