Kirsty Lang chairs radio's most fiendish quiz

The cryptic quiz of connections and lateral thinking, with Kirsty Lang.

(5/12)
Why could you get tangled up by a bachelor boy, a Dawley man, a Fabian woman, a wonderful salad and a new watcher of the skies?

The teams from the North of England and the Midlands have to untangle this and many other puzzles in this week's contest, with the Midlands hoping to take another scalp following their victory over Wales a few weeks ago. Stuart Maconie and Adele Geras appear for the North, with Frankie Fanko and Stephen Maddock representing the Midlands.

Kirsty Lang asks the questions and awards the points. As always, there's a generous scattering of question ideas provided by RBQ listeners, and Kirsty will have the answer to the teaser puzzle that went unanswered at the end of the previous edition.

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.
