(9/12)
What might be the preferred tipple of Eric's porcine dictator, Ilya's singular companion, Elvis's explosive alter-ego and Arthur's devious villain?

This can only be a Round Britain Quiz puzzle, and if anyone can answer it it's likely to be the teams from the North of England or the South of England, who have dominated the RBQ rankings in recent series. Stuart Maconie and Adele Geras appear for the North, against Marcus Berkmann and Paul Sinha of the South. Stuart and Adele will be out for vengeance after their defeat the last time these two teams met. 

The questions include some ingenious ideas from listeners, who have sent them to the production team at rbq@bbc.co.uk 

Producer: Paul Bajoria
