BBC Radio 4 - Round Britain Quiz, Programme 8, 2019

Tom Sutcliffe chairs the fiendish quiz, this week featuring the teams from Northern Ireland and Scotland. Paddy Duffy and Freya McClements take on Val McDermid and Alan McCredie.

(8/12)
This week's contest sees the Northern Ireland team of Paddy Duffy and Freya McClements taking on Val McDermid and Alan McCredie of Scotland, in their second clash of the current series. Tom Sutcliffe supplies the ingenious teasers, including:

What might be alarming about Jenna Coleman Down Under, Edvard's figure at sunset, a Katy Perry million-seller and a Bohemian engraver of views of London?

The panel will need to dig deep into their memory banks for obscure details about history, music, literature and popular culture. The more clues from the chair the panel need in solving the questions, the more points they'll lose. And how will they fare with the teasers suggested by RBQ listeners rather than by the regular question setters?

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.
