The regular teams from Northern Ireland and Wales, both with a victory under their belts already in the current series, face one another in the cryptic quiz contest.

Freya McClements and Paddy Duffy play for Northern Ireland, against Cariad Lloyd and Myfanwy Alexander for Wales.

Questions in today's programme:

Q1 Where in your house might you look for a Basque football manager, a novel by Patrick Suskind, Travolta as Turnblad, and P.Diddy?

Q2 (from Gerry O'Keeffe) In what way do these people differ: the author of Carrie's War, Bram's young female protagonist, an Italian actress who became a successful photojournalist, and the Queen of Rock 'n Roll?

Q3 Music: Place these titles in chronological order.

Q4 What extremities are linked by the 'last man in', Blackbeard's no.2, Shaw's story of love and war set in Bulgaria, and the A465 between Abergavenny and the Vale of Neath?

Q5 Why might you find Billy Casper's unforgiving teacher, the creator of Atlanta, and one for whom listening was a long-term project, in Yeovil Town?

Q6 (from Ivan Whetton) Music: Why, with these associations, would Galbraith's investigator be regarded as a success?

Q7 Explain why Daisy Jones's band, Poulenc and friends in Paris, a group of musical queens, and Martin Amis's 'murderee', could give you a perfect RBQ score.

Q8 (from Sally Heard) If a gang involved a handyman at a motel, a Cardiff brewery, two little French cakes, a Glenn Miller tune from Sun Valley Serenade and a ghost, who would be the leader and who was the policeman?
