[S4B]

Following on from Andy B's obsession with all things London Underground related what would your chosen specialist subject be were you to go on Mastermind?

I'm hoping from his to build up a suitable bank of "phone a friend" options should I (or anyone else on here) ever go on "Millionaire".

I'm still thinking what mine would be. My guesses for some of the forum regulars would be:

Topher - Ping Pong in Milton Keynes from 1900 - 2007
Boboff - Fudge and all its uses
Foots - Ways to catch your Haggis
Andy B - The London Underground, routes and fares 1867 - present day
Cat - Who to call when you need the crap beaten out of someone
Lottie - Insomnia it's causes and effects
Ballbag - Sexiness - how to get it, keep it and use it to its best advantage
Bruvva - Geekiness & how to survive it
Viv - Radio 1 daily scheduling and topics discussed during a single day that can be used to create threads on CM.net
Console - The art of always believing you're right
Yudster - Spiderman and ways to remove his thread from upholstery.
Sunny - Mad families with particular emphasis on the "So Cal" clan

Hmm. I'd say ways to get one over on someone grammatically, especially if it's Topher, as he seems to be good competition.

hey S4 what about me?

[kendra k]

i want to hear more about the underground!

s4b- what's your special subject?

ps- sorry i wouldn't be of any help.

[catherine]

kendra your special subject would be guitar hero

[Sunny So Cal]

I'm honoUred to be included in the list. I'm ace with mental family stories. See me

[Console]

Console - The art of always believing you're right

The secret is to always be right.

[Ballbag]

I'd love to go on mastermind, when I watch it I usually do pretty well compared to the people on there.

Trouble is I probably couldn't think of a specialist subject.......... oh....... and I'd HATE to be on TV.

[MK Chris]

Mine would be serial killers of the UK. Criminology (particularly serial killers) absolutely fascinate me.

[pjordan2000]

Mine I think would be TV in general. My mates at work think i'm sad because i know loads about TV, old and new from Robin's Nest and Sorry all the way through to the modern day stuff!

[Vivienne]

I would choose: R1 & Madonna as subjects.

[MK Chris]

Speaking of Madonna.. if anyone impartial (read: not Viv) goes to see her new film, could they please let me know if it's the utter bilge I would expect? Thanks.

[Vivienne]

it won't be utter bilge.. it will be genius.

[MK Chris]

This is why I said 'not Viv'.

[Console]

Which film are we talking about?

[Vivienne]

Oh God, Console.. you don't know what a "bob" is, and now this.

[MK Chris]

Which film are we talking about?

Filth and Wisdom, which she has apparently directed

[Vivienne]

She will indeed have directed it. She knows exactly what's what when it comes to directing. Exactly where the camera should be, etc., etc.

[Console]

Oh God, Console.. you don't know what a "bob" is, and now this.

This may shock you, but I don't have an encyclopaedic knowledge of female hair-styles and directors of movies I haven't seen. These would definitely not be my specialist subjects.

[Vivienne]

[foot-loose]

Oh God, Console.. you don't know what a "bob" is, and now this.

Considering you only discovered 'Snake' on the nokia a few months ago, I'm not sure you have a leg to stand on there!

[Vivienne]

Yeh, but a "bob" has been about since the year dot, you know.

[Zoot]

i think mine should be
'Bakeries in and around the gloucestershire area'

[Vivienne]

That's a good one. another one of mine could be all different species of chocolate.

[foot-loose]

Id heard of a bob, but not a new Madonna film.

That said, having just googled 'hair bob' the pictures are not what I was imagining. Apparently what I thought was a 'bob' you wummin call a 'bun'.
