Paul Gambaccini chairs the third heat of the general knowledge music quiz.

Paul Gambaccini chairs the third heat of the general knowledge music quiz, featuring competitors from Dumfries, West Yorkshire and Cardiff.

(3/13)
Paul Gambaccini is in the chair for the third heat in the 2013 series of the general knowledge music quiz, from MediaCity in Salford. 

The three competitors answering questions on all styles and aspects of music come from Dumfries, West Yorkshire and Cardiff. As well as demonstrating a broad general knowledge of music they'll also have to 'specialise' in a topic they've had no preparation for - chosen from a list Paul will give them half way through the show.

There are plenty of surprises and musical extracts to identify, familiar and not so familiar. The winner will go through to the semi-final stage of the 2013 competition in July.

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.
