4BR Quiz: Weekend Quiz

A little bit of fun for our special weekend quiz from 4BR with our secret policeman's call...

Secret policeman
 

We have a great bundle prize worth over £100 on offer for the winner of our special weekend quiz thanks to our friends at Dawsons Music.

There’s a Jo -Ral tenor trombone bucket mute and 3 CDs of your choice, from the 4BR shopping area if you can identify the policeman in the picture above.

Who's the copper?

The only clues we can give is that he isn’t a real copper, and that he is better known as a leading top flight player, conductor and adjudicator.

He also shares the same name with a former England centre forward who used to play for Sheffield Wednesday and once held the record for the fastest recorded shot, hitting the bar at 114 mph against Arsenal at Highbury in September 1996.
