BBC Radio 4 - Round Britain Quiz, Programme 6, 2015

Tom Sutcliffe chairs the game of lateral thinking and cryptic connections.

Tom Sutcliffe is in the chair for the latest contest of cryptic connections, featuring Wales versus the Midlands.

(6/12)
With victories already under their belt in the early contests of the series, both Wales and The Midlands will be aiming to add to their tally as they clash for the first time this season.

David Edwards and Myfanwy Alexander play for Wales, opposite Rosalind Miles and Stephen Maddock of the Midlands team. The competition promises to be keen, and the teams will have to trawl all of their arcane knowledge to deal with Tom Sutcliffe's puzzles, which include: 'Some unfortunate ancient women, a defunct City bank and a very shy pianist appear to have collaborated on Onward Christian Soldiers - how?'

As always, Tom will be deducting points for every intervention he has to make to nudge them towards the solution. He'll also be revealing the answer to the teaser puzzle he set last time, and providing a new one to keep you guessing for a further week.

Producer: Paul Bajoria.
