Heat 5, 2020

Russell Davies hosts the fifth heat in the nationwide general knowledge tournament, with competitors from Chichester, Cardiff and London.

(5/17)
In astronomy, what is a P.H.O? Which are the hills that make up Yorkshire's so-called Three Peaks? And which is the first event in the women's heptathlon? Russell Davies asks the questions of four more potential Brains of Britain, in a contest recorded before the restrictions on public gatherings.

Taking part are:
Jon Clatworthy, a risk assessor from Chichester
Nicki Cockburn, a student from Cardiff
William Dunbar, a journalist from London
Simon O'Brien, a digital editor, also from London.

A semi-final place awaits today's winner, and there'll also be a chance for a Brain of Britain listener to win a prize by outwitting the contestants with his or her own questions.

Producer: Paul Bajoria
