Heat 5, 2023

Russell Davies chairs the general knowledge contest from MediaCityUK in Salford, with four competitors bidding to become Brain of Britain 2023.

(5/17)
Another four contenders join Russell Davies for the first of the northern-based contests in this year's Brain of Britain season. An enthusiastic audience at the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Salford studios will find out who's going through to the semi-finals and taking a step closer to the title.

What are the five colours of the Olympic rings? What's the first of the Ten Commandments? What was the protest group The Anti-Heptagonists opposed to? The Brains today will have to grapple with these and many more questions from all fields of knowledge, as well as tackling questions from a listener hoping to Beat the Brains with questions he or she has supplied.

Taking part are:
Jean Burtonwood from Huddersfield
Brian Craythorne from Belfast
Rob Greenhill from Leicester
Gill Hollis from Lichfield.

Assistant Producer: Stephen Garner
Producer: Paul Bajoria
