Brain of Brains 2018

The most recent Radio 4 Brain of Britain champions compete in the ultimate general knowledge contest, chaired by Russell Davies.

To launch the new season of 'Brain of Britain', the champions of the three previous series, along with the highest-scoring runner-up in a final, compete for the coveted title 'Brain of Brains 2018'. Russell Davies tests their general knowledge with half an hour of particularly tricky questions, and has a special trophy for the champion of champions to add to their cabinet of accolades.

The winner will also go forward to the 'Top Brain' contest held next week, in which the three most recent winners of 'Brain of Brains' go head to head in the ultimate general knowledge quiz.

Producer: Paul Bajoria.
