Semi-Final 1

Victoria Coren Mitchell hosts the series where knowledge will only take you so far. Patience and lateral thinking are also vital.

It’s the first of the semi-finals as two teams compete to draw together the connections between things which, at first glance, seem utterly random.

So join Victoria if you want to know what completes this sequence: Vijfhuizen: Houses, Sichuan: Rivers and Tripoli: Cities.
