Heat 10, 2015

Russell Davies presents the nationwide general knowledge quiz. The tenth heat features contestants from Huddersfield, Liverpool, Leeds and Kendal.

(10/17)
Which Pharaoh ordered the construction of the Great Pyramid at Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world? And which familiar two-word term was first coined by the film critic Nino Frank, when discussing films such as The Maltese Falcon and Double Indemnity?

The competitors in today's heat will have to answer these and many other questions to stand a chance of qualifying for the semi-final stage of this year's tournament. Russell Davies is in the chair, and the contestants come from Huddersfield, Liverpool, Leeds and Kendal.

They'll also face questions suggested by a listener, with the aim of 'Beating the Brains' and winning a book token prize.

Producer: Paul Bajoria.
