Tom Sutcliffe chairs the cultural quiz. The North of England competes against the Midlands

Tom Sutcliffe chairs the fourth contest in the current series of the cryptic quiz game, featuring the North of England against the Midlands.

(4/12)
What common feature is shared by the Northern Territory's most famous landmark, the President of Kenya, and an operating system you may have on your laptop? 

The teams from the North of England and the Midlands convene this week to tackle cryptic puzzles such as this, with Tom Sutcliffe in the chair to ensure fair play and to steer them in the right direction when they seem to be going off at tangents. 

Diana Collecott and Jim Coulson make up the North of England team, while Rosalind Miles and Stephen Maddock appear for the Midlands.

As usual Tom will be dipping into the mailbag for question suggestions from Round Britain Quiz listeners.

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.
