What would your Mastermind specialist subjects be?

[storminacupoftea]

The rules: you need 3 (for the heat, semi-final and final) and they can’t be anything to do with your job. Can be as populist or erudite as you fancy!

It’s ok if they’ve been done before.

Mine would be:
Cabin Pressure (radio show)
Green Wing (TV show)
The life and works of Alan Rickman

Unfortunately I’d only have one, 80’s rock. I’d have to drop out at that point.

90s music
The life and works of Madonna
Crime dramas

I'd to think that it would be

1. African American Literature
2. Women's history in Ireland
3. 90s pop music

But because this is anonymous, it would probably have to be:

1. Peppa Pig
2. Disney princesses
3. Useless facts about Liverpool FC

Friends
Oasis
Blur
Sophie Kinsella
Greys Anatomy

1. The art of procrastination
2. How to look busy when dh wfh whilst doing fuck all
3. Faffing

Came in to say Cabin Pressure!

My other two would be:

• the Discworld
• Brooklyn 99

Early Beatles (only because I've just been listening to an audiobook and only done Part 1!)

80s song lyrics

Terminator 2

Mrs Beeton's Book of Household Management

Allo Allo

Caligula (the man, not the film)

• the US office
• Taylor Swift
• the books of Brandon Sanderson
• Harry Potter (Books, film or fanfic 😂)
• The Great British Bake Off

Places the cat chooses to vomit with which food.

Friends
Agatha Christie novels
Thomas the tank engine

I’d fight you for Cabin Pressure

The Carry On films

Ghosts (the show)

Mine would be:

Only Fools and Horses

80’s music including lyrics

The work of Mike Gayle

90's Music
Dog Breeds
Most comfortable sleeping positions

Ah yes, Friends, I reckon I could do that one without thinking.

The Thick of It
The Sharpe novels

Paul Simon
The Archers
Capital Cities

Oh dear mine have all been taken!

Carry on films
Agatha Christie crime novels (at a pinch, life and crime novels of Agatha Christie)
Cabin pressure radio series

Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Midsomer Murders (the John Nettles era)/ITV 3 crime dramas in general
The Wife of Bath

The aisles of Asda 2000 to present day

TV Series Friends
Books by Stephen King
Music by Bon Jovi

I was talking about this with DP just last week funnily enough and we both agreed Peppa Pig would be the subject we probably confidently know most broadly about currently 😅

Harry PotterMerlin (tv)

I always said mine would be Frasier. But then I watched somebody else go on and their specialist subject actually WAS Frasier and i was very disappointed in my poor performance. They were hard questions.

My husband's would be the M18 motorway. He's obsessed with it, tells me daily if it's congested or closed, he checks google maps.

He travels it perhaps once a week 😂

World’s Strongest Man, 1994 to present day.

Exact location of very small toys around my house.
