(6/12) Teams from all over the UK will face Kirsty Lang's cryptic questions across the series, with Kirsty offering support and the odd hint where it might be needed. This sixth contest features Wales and Scotland. Questions in today's edition: Q1: (from Tim Riley) You’re looking for 5 words. Why might a hidden collection that includes facial hair, chocolate icing, Rhone grapes, and wet shredded paper all leave you in pain? Q2: Why would Maurice Micklewhite, A Henry James Novel, and a Macauley Culkin film from 1991, all be welcome chez nous? And why would it be fun? Q3: Music: I’d like you to tell me why you might find them all refreshing. Q4: (from Michael Hipkins) Here are some directions for a long road journey: Head clockwise through lush greenery, then take the rugged southern route. Continue until the landscape turns golden. Pass through a bright, white stretch, Then as the sun blazes overhead, your destination lies where light shimmers on the horizon. Where are you? Q5 Why are… an inactive element used in welding, episodes in Ulysses, prohibition, racehorses, and 75% pure gold… …all legal milestones Q6 Music: Listen to these songs and tell me why they’d all land on their feet. Q7 (from Alan Hay) Where would these lead you… A supernatural BBC sitcom, a present for Queen Mary, Hostis Publicus and a discontented wife Q8 (from Stephen Murphy) Why might Wallace's ways of looking, Alfred's thunderbolt and Gerard's morning's minion - hold a seat in Geoffrey's parliament?
