Does anyone remember the general knowledge board game circa 1960's.............

It was the one where you had various subjects akin to trivial pursuits except a figure of a teacher was placed on the centre of the board game where there was a magnet and somehow he would point to the correct answer. I think it worked with a magnet under the mirror.

Me and DH have been racking our brains for this tip of the tongue name of the game!

Oh my mum had that and I remember playing it when we went to my granny's house (I am slightly younger vintage than 1960s ).

Could ask her but hopefully someone else will know first. I can visualise it perfectly

It was this sort of thing wasn't it? Although I'm sure the one I remember looked slightly different.

lol! at younger vintage

Yep that is similar. DH says this was the later version of it. Grrrrr, we will be up all night trying to remember!

I remember it too but not the name. I can picture the teacher in mortar board and gown with a long pointer in his hand. Now I'll be up all night thinking of the name.

Dr Magini - The Master Mind - google it!

Could it be Great Marvello. Just looked it up and the figure in the middle was a wizard character. I, like Granny seem to remember and teacher with mortar board and gown with a cane!
