Heat 6, 2024

Russell Davies welcomes competitors from around the UK to compete for the prestigious quiz title Brain of Britain 2024

(6/17)
What's the largest artery in the human body? What's the biggest-selling single in Britain never to have reached no.1? And when Shane Warne bowled the so-called 'Ball of the Century', who was on the receiving end? You can find the answers to these and many other questions - and discover whether the contestants know the answers - in the sixth heat of the 2024 Brain of Britain tournament.

There's a place in the semi-finals reserved for today's winner, but others could go through too if the contest is tight and their scores are high enough.

Taking part are:
Jo Cardwell from Lichfield
David Edwards from Denstone in Staffordshire
Brian Johnston from Sutton Coldfield
Janie Mitchell from Lydbury North in Shropshire.
