Hello and welcome to a brand new game of Mastermind Sheep, featuring the most ominous chair in all of quizdom
 
15 people submitted Specialist Subjects to base our questions on. Those categories and the people who nominated them will be revealed over time
 
Here is a reminder of the questions which resulted from those Specialist Subjects:
 
 
1. A number-one best-selling single from 1982
2. A single by Boyzone
3. A song that appears in the first "Pitch Perfect" movie
 
4. A character from the video game "Final Fantasy VII", other than Cloud Strife
5. A video game released in 2021
 
6. A Sherlock Holmes novel
7. A non-human character from "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy"
8. A winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in the 21st century
 
9. A location in the TV series "Friends"
10. An actor/actress who appeared in the "Doctor Who" episode "The Day of the Doctor"
11. A character who appears in the "Downton Abbey" movie
 
12. The colour of a line on the London Underground
13. An animal or object in the nursery rhyme "Hey Diddle Diddle"
14. A type of wood found in Ireland
15. A winner of the "BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year" award
 
 
For ease of reading, I have grouped them into five categories: music, video games, literature, TV and general knowledge
 
 
Bonus points are available for people who submitted Specialist Subjects, if they manage to find the Sheep in their topic of choice. However, punishments are also on the table if they fail to find the Sheep, so anyone can win, regardless of whether they nominated a subject or not
 

Join us at 8pm on BBC Two FoG for the grand finale Smile

Fun fact, I won the BBC Mastermind when I was younger, don't I look dashing?

This would be a far more prestigious, and truthful, prize though!

While EN is (allegedly) looking to make it 2/2 in Mastermind victories, I can now reveal the 20 players looking to win the trophy this time around are:


ari101
Barna77
cee_jay
E.N.
Edser
HeyV
Homer J. Fong
Irish Aris
jp liz v1
Leg End Reject
Mam of 4
Necro
Neowise
nothing
quickbeam
Sawduck
ShaneU
Toto Wolfcastle
wrestlemaniac
Zaph


15 of those people are also responsible for the Specialist Subjects on which our questions were based. Will they make full-use of their potential bonus, or will our five exclusive-Sheepers upset the odds?

Our first question was based on Leg End Reject’s Specialist Subject: 80s music. I narrowed the field down to a specific year, the first one I could find that had several Sheepable options. But which chart-topper will be the top of our table?

The second of our music-based questions comes courtesy of Toto Wolfcastle, and their Specialist Subject of 90s boybands. Lots to choose from, so of course I had to root for the local boys. Is this the song you went for?

The third and final music in our music comes not from an era or genre, but a movie series - specifically the Pitch Perfect movie series, as chosen by cee_jay. This movie was the origin of one very popular song, but will your cups be filled with points as a result?

#On to video games now, specifically Final Fantasy VII, which Necro nominated as his Specialist Subject. I assumed everyone would choose the main character, hence why I eliminated him from the equation. So who did you choose in his place?
