Mastermind 2014-2015 Episode 23 (UK Series)

John Humphrys invites four more contenders to answer questions in the black chair. The subjects are Game of Thrones, Neil Young, Bournville Village and the life and career of Sir Edward Marshall Hall.

The general knowledge questions are a REAL mental workout. Thanks for posting.

[@MuhammadHawler98]

The game of thrones questions were so easy

[@geoffjoffy]

Love these. Thanks

[@Arock4455]

I wouldve gotten all the GoT questions, even the barrowton one.

[@jimmy2k4o]

Plus some extra ones because you would t wait for the question to finish.

[@joepagram8287]

@@jimmy2k4oI was thinking the same thing, know need to be polite when it’s a long way of asking something obvious

[@jimmy2k4o]

Why do they wait for the question to finish first, I could have squeezed in so much more.

[@Narmatonia]

He went for the tv show what a pleb :P

[@JT_Williams]

I think most people would tbh

[@him050]

And got almost every question right 🤷‍♂️

[@thomaswest3175]

Pretty good Game of Thrones Knowledge.

[@kidgoku666]

Thomas West Pretty rubbish questions though. I was hoping for lore questions, like "Who was the 'King in the North' at the time of Aegon's Conquest of Westeros; who became known as 'The King Who Knelt'?"
And even that's an easy one. Mind, I suppose 'Game of Thrones' is different to 'A Song of Ice and Fire'.

[@him050]

“What’s the name of the king beyond the wall?” These are Mastermind questions?! Seriously?!

[@nicot9305]

This isn't quite like "8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown", is it.

Oh God, Humphrys' Game of Thrones pronunciation was a train wreck. Up to him if he doesn't want to watch the show of course, but given how much he's paid it's pretty poor not to spend five minutes preparing before the quiz. His job isn't exactly rocket science.

[@SleutherStrode]

+Ryan Denziloe you know he is welsh right?

[@gorgolyt]

Sarah Barber That's a joke, right? lol

[@tompugh5566]

I'm Welsh and have no issues pronouncing the names,

[@mancerayder626]

I only missed the Barrowtown question, but I was answering them way faster than that guy. Someone should've told him he doesn't need to wait for Humphreys to finish reading the questions.

[@danielchiverton4168]

Mance Rayder yes he does. you aren't allowed to answer before the question has been finished reading.

[@him050]

@@danielchiverton4168 well that must have changed, I’ve seen loads of contestants cutting him off

[@danielchiverton4168]

@@him050 I don't know what show you've been watching but at no point in the entire history of the show has that been allowed.

[@him050]

@@danielchiverton4168 right you are. I’ve just watched some clips where people have done it and he’s just kept talking
