The fourth heat in the 2015 season of the venerable general knowledge quiz, with Russell Davies.
(4/17)
Which is the largest landlocked country in the world? And which word is both an Imperial measurement of weight and the alternative name for the snow leopard?
Russell Davies puts these and many other questions to the four latest competitors in the evergreen general knowledge quiz. They'll each be hoping their general knowledge proves to be good enough to carry them through to the semi-finals, and perhaps even all the way to the 62nd Brain of Britain title.
There's also a chance for a listener to win a prize by suggesting questions that will stump the contestants' collective knowledge, in 'Beat the Brains'.
Producer: Paul Bajoria.
