BBC Radio 4 - Round Britain Quiz, 31/10/2011

Teams from Scotland and Northern Ireland meet for the last show in the current series.

Tom Sutcliffe welcomes teams from Scotland and Northern Ireland for the last in the current series of the cryptic quiz.

(12/12)
If five contains four, and six contains nine, but eight and nine each contain only one, how many will you find in seven?

This and all of the other devious questions in the last edition of the current series have been suggested by listeners, and to tackle them Tom Sutcliffe is joined by the teams from Scotland and Northern Ireland. As ever, the cryptic questions draw on everything from history to literature, classical music to cinema, physics to football.

At the end of the contest it will become clear which of the six regular teams has taken the Round Britain Quiz champions' title for 2011.

Producer: Paul Bajoria.
