Mastermind

Post by Thomas Cappleman »

I'm going to be filming for the next series of Mastermind on the evening of 24th July. If anyone (nearby or otherwise) fancies coming along to Media City for non-Countdown filming and to keep me company in the green room let me know. I can have 3 guests in the green room, as well as up to 7 additional audience tickets.

Very nice, what'll your specialist subject be (if you can say)?

Was that Kate Ritchie from Countdown on the show tonight? Even had a question about CD if so
Definitely not Jamie McNeill or Schrodinger's Cat....

I think maybe someone tried (probably Robbo) but they didn't consider it a proper enough subject.

I really hope he steps away from Humphrys's extreme editorialising of the question style and content.

I realise it was a few years ago, but when you first applied for Mastermind, how long did you wait before hearing back?

Don't really remember, but equally don't remember any massive pauses. Filming was late July, so probably heard back and had an audition about now (maybe a bit later), and got audition result fairly soon after that.

Oh cool, thanks for the response. In the interim, I have heard back about my application form/online quiz and have now been invited for a zoom audition. I imagine this stage will be my stumbling block, but looking forward to it regardless!
