Heat 3, 2021

Russell Davies is in the chair for the third heat of the general knowledge tournament for 2021

(3/17)
Off the coast of which state in the USA did the tanker Exxon Valdez spill millions of tonnes of oil in 1989? And what's the most famous invention of John Montague? If you know the answers to these questions, you can find out if the contenders in Brain of Britain do too, as Russell Davies hosts the third heat of the 2021 tournament.

The programme comes from the Radio Theatre in London and was recorded without an audience under Covid rules on indoor gatherings.

Tackling today's questions are:
Mark Manson, a restaurateur from Carmarthen
Caroline Markovitch, an NHS administrator from Letchworth
Bernadette Stott, a former banker and Open University student from South London
Lisa Tulfer, a freelance writer from Glastonbury.

Today's winner will take another of the places in the Brain of Britain semi-finals in the autumn. There's also an opportunity for a listener to win a prize by devising questions with which to stump the combined knowledge of the panel.
