Hello everyone! Unfortunately we need to make some changes to this page. The BBC has changed its rules on how many pages we can have and has told us to close them down.

Unfortunately that includes this Essex Quest page. We very much value your comments and thoughts and would like to keep them coming, although your best chance of interacting directly with the show and helping Barry and Liana is to call us during the programme on freephone 0800 111 4041, by texting us on 81333 (starting with the word Essex) or emailing [email protected].

If you’d still like to use Facebook to interact with us, please like or follow the main BBC Essex FB page where you can send a message to our inbox. We won’t be posting the clues on there though so you’ll need to listen to the show for them.

This page will be taken down on June 1st. Thanks so much to all of you for your comments, kind words and interaction with the Essex Quest over the years, we still want to keep them as part of the show, it just has to be in a slightly different way! Please go to our BBC Essex FB page if you aren’t already a follower: www.facebook.com/BBCEssex
