Heat 8, 2022
Russell Davies puts the questions to a new batch of contenders in the prestigious general knowledge quiz.
The eighth heat of Brain of Britain 2022 comes from Salford, with four competitors from around the UK facing Russell Davies' questions in their bid for a place in the semi-finals. Will they remember the name of the private investigator who was the main character in The Maltese Falcon? Or what 'selenology' is the study of? Or what kind of animal a 'Flemish giant' is?
Taking part today are:
Rob Earnshaw from Dudley
Jim Maginnis, originally from County Armagh
Jo McEvedy from Newcastle upon Tyne
Sarah Trevarthan from Manchester
A lucky Brain of Britain listener will also have a chance to win a prize if his or her questions succeed in outwitting the combined brainpower of the contestants.
