BBC Radio 4 - More or Less, Christmas Quiz

Tim Harford poses a tough statistical challenge.

For the last programme of the year, More or Less is mixing up the format and holding a Christmas Quiz.

For the last programme of the year we are mixing up the format and holding a Christmas Quiz. Tim Harford poses some difficult numerical questions to our contestants: Stephanie Flanders, former BBC Economics Editor; Paul Lewis, presenter of Radio 4's Money Box; comedian Nathan Caton and science writer Helen Pilcher. 

How will they fare with questions based on a range of topical subjects including the Olympics, the EU Referendum and reindeer? Plus, friend of the programme, Rob Eastaway poses a mathematical puzzle.

Producer: Charlotte McDonald.
