“Round Britain Quiz and Brain of Britain are good.
Counterpoint can get in the bin though.”

“Therefore questions asked about people 27?
What a better world it would be if everyone focussed on commonality rather than difference”

“Paul Gambaccini gets ruder every series. He always seems so surprised when someone gets an answer right but is very dismissive when they get a question wrong. The endless name dropping is just tedious.”

“Where is the latest Brain of Britain? I have some witless drivel in its place. I enjoy RBQ, BoB, and the Music quiz but not this tripe.”

“The balance between classical and pop has shifted markedly in recent seasons. Too much pop exotica and references to BBC shows and not enough questions on classical music. It used be a better test of a wide musical knowledge - now it sounds more and more like Ken Bruce’s show with a few classical...”Read full review »

“I love the five mystery specialist subjects. The questions are often fiendish. Could I put in a plea for more opera-based subjects in this round? Paul Gambuccini is the perfect host - he often offers a little clue, if you listen carefully to his remarks, especially when he thinks someone is...”Read full review »

“Listening to this as an American, I love how the contestants will immediately know something really obscure like the second violin player in the 1984 London Philharmonic, but will be stumped by the capital of South Carolina. This is a welcome relief to most American quiz/trivia shows though. The...”Read full review »

“British/European topics are obscure to me, but usually a contestant knows the answer. US topics are usually something I know, and often the contestants don't. We all live in bubbles.”Read full review »

“I love listening to these but find it annoying that they are only held by iTunes for a limited time. Does it not occur to the BBC that people might like to listen to them more than once? Also, what am I supposed to listen to when they are off the air?”

“I have enjoyed the General Knowledge Quiz and Counterpoint but i cannot see the point of the round Britain Quiz?
The Teams are givern written knowledge of the questions and still cannot get annything right without being givern the answers almost by Tom Sutcliffe.
Please no more of this.....”
