Heat 12, 2016
Russell Davies chairs the last of the 2016 heats of the nationwide general knowledge quiz.
(12/17)
What's the better known name for the Flavian Amphitheatre? Which football stadium has the smallest capacity in Premier League history? And which 19th century composer's third symphony is known as the 'Rhenish' because it was inspired by a Rhine excursion?
Contestants from Middlesbrough, Nottingham, Liverpool and York face Russell Davies' notoriously challenging questions, in the final heat of 2016. The programme comes from Media City UK in Salford. Only one automatic place remains in the semi-finals which begin next week. Will any of the runners-up today score enough points to qualify too?
Producer: Paul Bajoria.
