My Specialist Subject is ...

[bobo the clown]

If you were on Mastermind what would be your specialist subject ?


Mine today, John, is "Record Labels 1967-76".

Go on, ask me, ask me.


What's yours ?

[LeverEnd]

British Distance running 1972 - present. I'd have to do some serious swotting though, not the geek I used to be in my school days.

[clapton is god]

Wainwrights Lakeland Hills.

[bwfcdan94]

Locations of places in England, I would ace that. Or alternatively im good at accents.

[TANGODANCER]

Pride and Prejudice-the book version. I know it inside out.

[Zulus Thousand of em]

WW1 or WW2 - I'm your man!

[bobo the clown]

WW1 or WW2 - I'm your man!

A tad broader than one book !!!

[Zulus Thousand of em]

I didn't think it was about one book.

[Little Green Man]

WW1 or WW2 - I'm your man!

More war bore than Boer war then?

[bobo the clown]

I didn't think it was about one book.

It's not. It does need to be broad enough to be a challenge. I'm not sure one book would get approval ... unless its a big 'un !!

[Annoyed Grunt]

The Simpsons....

Strangely enough I went on to complete the application last week. It was this specific question times four that stumped me.
You need to not only submit FOUR specialist subjects, but the books you are using as references so they can coordinate the questions to meet what it is you think the subject is.
But, however, mine are so vague, as has been pointed out, one book don't cover it.
I have noticed the broader the subject the easier the questions... So mine are
1. History ( of the world, since time began)
2. Astronomy
3. Religion
4. World Geography

I am still considering applying.

[Lost Leopard Spot]

Plus my back up subjects would be
5. Science
6. Particle Physics
7. Anatomy
8. Owen Coyle

[Harry Genshaw]

Football World Cup or Blackadder

[Hoboh]

Plus my back up subjects would be
5. Science
6. Particle Physics
7. Anatomy
8. Owen Coyle

Stay sober and I reckon you'd p*ss it spots.

Ha. I heard a radio programme once when people were invited to hone in and ask a top general knowledge guy any question they liked.

Then a guy came on & asked what colour jumper he was wearing. He was told "no, it needs to be a general knowledge question" but it simply ran on with his asking impossible, personal questions.

Was that you Blackbeard ?

I've decided to change my back-up 8th subject from "Owen Coyle" to "Clowns"... similar but different...

Now Bobo needs to write a book and you can use it as your reference LLS. As long as it also contains the 7 other topics mentioned.
