Synopsis

The judges, including Magnus Magnusson of the Royal College of Music, now face a crucial decision: four remaining contestants vie for a spot in the semi-final. Among them are Anne Miller, an assistant library manager, whose submission focuses on the life and works of Lewis Carroll (1832-98); David McDonnell, a police officer, who has presented a history of Roman Britain AD 200-500; Richard Jones, a policy research officer, whose work examines the history of the Conservative Party from 1832-19
