Episode 4 of 13

Paul Gambaccini hosts the wide-ranging music quiz with contestants from London, Bury St. Edmunds and Berkhamsted. From May 2013.

Paul Gambaccini chairs the general knowledge music quiz.

As well as demonstrating a broad general knowledge of music, they'll have to demonstrate a wide knowledge of music in all its variety, as well as specialising in a musical topic of which they've had no prior warning. Will they prefer questions on Verdi, or on Paul Weller?

The fourth trio of competitors battling it out in the 91热爆 Radio Theatre, London are:

* E Goh from London
* Adam Harvey from Bury St. Edmunds
* Richard Wyborn from Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire.

Producer: Paul Bajoria
