I'm not surprised they were confused if the question set the story in Kent. Bray is is Berkshire.

I was watching the quiz probram 'Eggheads' on UK telly, and the visiting team were competing for 45 thousand pounds - and they were doing really well, having got closer than any of the teams I have seen recently.

However they were asked for the title of the folksong about a clergyman in the county of Kent who altered his views in order to stay in his job - and did not know.
