Talk:Brain of Britain

untitled

There used to be (and maybe still is) a programme on Radio 4 called Master Brain where that years Brain of Britain champion and runner up would compete against that years Mastermind champion and runner up. Don't know if they still have those so I haven't added it to the article because I don't know whether it should be talked about in the past or the present tense. 81.152.195.56 04:08, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Jorkins returns?

The current series (2008) sees the return of Jorkins. Is this Kevin Ashman again? Or someone else? Or a figment of Robert Robinson's imagination? AuntFlo (talk) 13:41, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

It's someone else. Jw6aa (talk) 15:54, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Explanation Needed

A few words of explanation of what a 'silent buzzer' is would be helpful. 80.189.116.197 (talk) 20:34, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

This page needs updating

The final for the 2011 series took place on February 14, 2011. This implies that this article needs updating, and we need to put in more information. ACEOREVIVED (talk) 20:25, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

I have just looked at the BBC website, which states the finalists as being:

JOHN BEYNON, a gardener from Northwich in Cheshire; MARK KERR, a chartered surveyor from Prescot in Lancashire; DR IWAN THOMAS, a freelance science editor from Beeston in Nottinghamshire; ANDY TUCKER, a consultant and former diplomat from Winchester.

I remember that Tucker was fourth - if some one can recall the rank order of these candidates, it would be good to add that to update the article. ACEOREVIVED (talk) 00:29, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

OK, so here are the results for the 2011 final:
