Someone has chosen this as their specialist subject on Mastermind tonight (8pm BBC2)

Should be worth a look, just to see how clever we all are (or aren't, as the case may be!)

Aren't in my case, I got about five right plus a few guesses - contestant did well, scored 15. Did learn a few facts though (if I can retain them).

Cheers Vicster,
Couldn't get a sodding answer out before he did! Only managed 5 correct. He was pretty good, as they all were on their specialist subjects.
The woman who won was pretty bastard quick on her general knowledge too.
I've no chance, me.
Regards,
TE.

I got all of them and a couple more that would have been asked if he'd been a bit quicker.

Magnus Magnusson would have been in his element on this episode, wouldn't he? He's written a few historical - a couple specifically Scottish - books in his time:

I've got one of them (hah! Don't remember which!) - might stick it on the Books of Possible Interest thread...

Damnit! We missed it! I should LOVE to have seen that.

Had to be the bearded bloke and not the woman with nice legs.......... sigh.
