Russell Davies returns with a new run of the prestigious general knowledge quiz, to discover who will be named Brain of Britain 2021.
(1/17)
The quest for the 2021 Brain of Britain champion begins in earnest, with the first four of this season's 48 competitors joining Russell Davies at the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio Theatre for the 68th season of the general knowledge contest.
Taking part are
Claire Barrow, a trust and estate practitioner from Honiton in Devon
Lillian Crawford, a freelance writer from Bearsted in Kent
David Gregson, a civil servant from London
Chris Kilbride, a retired maths teacher from St Austell in Cornwall.
Today's winner will go through to the semi-finals in the autumn, but one of the others could join them if the scores are high enough to get them through as a top-scoring runner-up.
As always, there's a prize on offer for a listener who manages to outwit the competitors with questions of his or her own devising, in the Beat The Brains interval.
Producer: Paul Bajoria
