BBC Radio 4 - Round Britain Quiz, Programme 7, 2016

Tom Sutcliffe chairs the game of cryptic clues and convoluted connections.

Tom Sutcliffe chairs another showdown between regions of the UK, in the game of cryptic connections.

(7/12)
Wales play Scotland in their second clash of the 2016 season, as Tom Sutcliffe provides another sheaf of mind-bendingly cryptic questions. The Scots, Val McDermid and Alan McCredie, will be hoping they can stop Myfanwy Alexander and David Edwards of Wales who have won all of their matches in the series so far.

How good is their knowledge of international football, African politics, the geography of the Arctic regions, and unusual disasters from history? All of this will be tested by today's questions which will be available on the website as usual before the programme begins. Tom is on hand to provide clues and cautions whenever the teams are in danger of straying down too many blind alleys - but the clues will cost them points.

Producer: Paul Bajoria.
