   The credits no longer create associations with specific rounds - I think   
   that ceased years ago. For that episode they simply read as follows.   
      
   Question Setters and Verifiers:   
   21st Century Quiz   
   Saira Dunnakey   
   Brenda Haugh   
   Sara Low   
   Sian Roberts

   Most named individuals seem to be verifiers.   
      
   It must be tricky for someone not fairly well versed in a subject to   
   know what's commonplace and what's esoteric. Is "voicing the thirteenth"   
   something that every music fan should recognise and know about or is it   
   just a skeevy trick that keyboardists use to cock a snook at guitarists?   
     I guess the moderating function is part of the verifiers' role.
