We head out to Bristol’s ”brainiest” area to test locals on their general knowledge - can you do better?

Redland was revealed as the ‘brainiest’ neighbourhood in Bristol based on the percentage of people aged 16 or over with a degree or higher, according to the 2021 census.

Of course, it’s not entirely accurate to say that the higher the qualifications, the brainer the person is.

We headed to Chandos Road in Redland to test residents with general knowledge questions:

1. How many stars are in the European Flag?

2. Which country invented tea?

3. What is the smallest country in the world?

4. Who, in 1903, was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize?

Watch the video above to see their responses. Can you do better?
