Heat 9, 2023

Russell Davies chairs the ninth heat in the current series of the prestigious general knowledge quiz, to discover who will be named Brain of Britain 2023

(9/17)
In which city did this year's Tour de France begin? What's the title of the poem by Philip Larkin that ends with the line 'Never such innocence again'? And what's a 'Chicken of the Woods'? The answers to all of these questions can be found in today's heat of Brain of Britain - but will the competitors know them? Russell Davies is in the chair, with a lively audience cheering on the contestants at the Radio Theatre in London.

Taking part today are
Ray Eaton from London
Michael Frankl from Windsor
Carolyn Schofield from King's Lynn
Mickie Wynne-Davies from Oxted in Surrey.

There'll also be a chance for a Brain of Britain listener to win a prize by Beating the Brains with questions he or she has devised.
