BBC Radio 4 - Round Britain Quiz, Programme 10, 2021

The contest of cryptic connections chaired by Tom Sutcliffe.

Tom Sutcliffe chairs the classic quiz of lateral thinking and cryptic connections, with teams from around the UK. Today Northern Ireland take on the North of England.

(10/12)
The North of England, Stuart Maconie and Adele Geras, could find themselves in strong contention for the overall series title if they can hold off the challenge from Northern Ireland (Freya McClements and Paddy Duffy) in today's contest. This is the last appearance by these pairs in the current series so both sides will be going all-out for another win. Tom Sutcliffe asks the questions, provides helpful hints where necessary as the panellists deliberate, and awards the points according to how much he has had to intervene.

As usual there are several questions inspired by Round Britain Quiz listeners' suggestions - and each team gets a question with musical clips to identify and connect.

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.
