Ed to Head!

Ed to Head is a chance for you and a couple of friends to have some fun and show off your knowledge during Ed George's Afternoon Show on BBC Radio Derby.

Ed to Head

Two Eds - the stuff of nightmares!

Stop Press

So, we're in full swing with League 4 of the Ed to Head Challenge.

Our league openers, The Swadlincote Fire Flies managed a very respectable 21 Pts to start us off….with Duty Manager Gemma round off the week by dancing a little dance every time they got a question right!

Now every other team has something to aim for…and I'm not just talking about the dancing!

If you'd like to show your skills and tackle the challenge then drop me a line by email or call us on the usual number 01332 61 61 61 while the show is on air during the week.

---------------------------

Each weekday Ed challenges a team to solve just five questions. They will test what you know about what's around the corner and around the world. And, if you need help - his listeners are there to ask!

If you can't muster a team you might just have a bit of information that will help the team or maybe you have a local general knowledge question of your own that we can put to the team?

So, do you fancy going 'Ed To Head?' How will your team compare to others from across BBC Radio Derby's editorial area? Your team of three to five people just need to be available together by a phone between 1 and 2pm Monday to Friday during Ed's show.

For more details, to take part or offer a question (and answer!), drop Ed an email on the link below, ring the Afternoon Show in office hours on 01332 361111 or write to Ed George at P.O. Box 104.5, Derby DE1 3HL.
