2. How many satanists in Bungay, Suffolk?

Number-based quiz questions cover topics from Kate Winslet’s shoe size to Sherlock Holmes and the periodic table.

A brand-new, number-crunching comedy quiz for Radio 4 hosted by comedian and YouTuber Max Fosh. In the Every Answer Counts round, players must solve general knowledge equations such as multiplying the pH of pure water by the number of PHs in Philadelphia. In Bestimate Guesstimate, quizzers must calculate the value of a solid gold Max Fosh and how long it would take for Dolly Parton to sing Islands in the Stream on every island of the Philippines. And in the fast-paced Facts & Figures round - where extraordinary facts provide frankly useless clues to a series of tricky equations – they must work out the world record for the number of bees in a human mouth… or 763 divided by 7.
