Neuroscientists vs Strategists

Overview

Quiz show presented by Victoria Coren in which knowledge will only take you so far, as patience and lateral thinking are also vital. In the third of the quarter-finals, three studying for their PhDs at Oxford set out to challenge the brainpower of the strategists, a team unified by their love of sophisticated strategy board games. They compete to draw together the connections between things, which, at first glance, seem utterly random - from maypoles to horse racing to spoken theatre to mince pies.
