Brain Damage visitors with good memories will recall that back in October 2005, and November 2014, BBC's Mastermind included Pink Floyd as one of the contestants' chosen subjects.
For those of you unfamiliar with this show, in a nutshell, four contestants take it in turns to answer questions over two rounds, against the clock. The first round, 90 seconds long, comprises questions on each contestant's chosen specialist subject, and the second, two-minute round, tests general knowledge. The winner of each contest goes forward to the next knockout phase of the competition. It is one of the most popular quiz programmes on television, having run for almost forty-six years.
For the third time in the programme's history, someone has chosen to answer questions about Pink Floyd - and this week's show, which airs on the UK's BBC Two this coming Friday night, February 23rd, at 8pm (except in Wales for some reason!). More details can be found at the BBC website. Our thanks to David Haddock for letting us know about this.
As before, we will make a note of the questions (and the given answers) so you can all give the quiz a try - especially those who don't want the pressure of answering the questions 'live' in front of their families!
