Brains of Radley

This popular annual event takes place each year on a Friday evening in early November in the Village Hall

Teams of four (any age, any mix) compete over eight rounds of ten quiz questions (some with 'sound' and 'pictures').  Each team is charged an entry fee of £8 (£2 per person). Profits from the evening go to charity.

The winning team receives the Silk Trophy.

The runners up are presented with the Eric Blanks Cup.

The questions are usually set by the winners from the previous year.

Rrefreshments (tea and coffee) are available during the evening.

The closely fought competition in 2007 was won by the Radley Choirboys and Girl, who finished just half a point ahead of the Wise Ones and the Everhopefuls. The Wise Ones took second place on a tie-break. The evening was organised by the previous year's winners, the Sundials, a who donated the proceeds of £91 to their nominated charity, the British Heart Foundation.
