BBC Radio 4 - Round Britain Quiz, 10/10/2011

Tom Sutcliffe chairs the long-running lateral thinking quiz.

Tom Sutcliffe presents the game of lateral thinking and cryptic connections. Wales take on the North of England.

(9/12)
Wales take on the North of England in the latest contest of cryptic connections, in Round Britain Quiz. Joining chairman Tom Sutcliffe are the regular Welsh team of David Edwards and Myfanwy Alexander, and playing for the North of England are Jim Coulson and Diana Collecott.

They'll need all their powers of lateral thinking, and will have to marshal their knowledge of science, literature, sport, history, music and popular culture in order to tackle the programme's notoriously contorted questions.

As usual, there are question ideas from Round Britain Quiz listeners among them - and you can find out how to send in your own suggestions for questions to outwit the regulars.

Producer: Paul Bajoria.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
