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

Tom Sutcliffe is joined by the panellists from the Midlands and the North of England for the game of lateral thinking and cryptic connections.

(8/12)
Robert Muldoon's successor, Blue Sky's Oscar winner and Mozart's portraitist: why are they only different on the radio?

This is just one of the eight apparently impenetrable questions facing the Round Britain Quiz panellists this week, as Stephen Maddock and Rosalind Miles of the Midlands take on Stuart Maconie and Adele Geras of the North of England. Tom Sutcliffe is on hand to provide helpful steers where needed - but the more help the teams need, the more points they'll be docked.

As always, the programme includes some of the best recent question ideas sent in by listeners - and Tom will have the solution to the teaser he left unanswered at the end of last week's show.

Producer: Paul Bajoria.
