Like Mastermind but for nerdy subjects, nerdbrain is looking for people interested in participating in a series of charity quiz shows benefitting special effect and the british red cross.
Shows will have two rounds:
A 2 minute 30 second round of questions on your specialist subject, carefully curated by the team
A 2 minute round of general knowledge questions.
The winner from each show will progress to the final. If you get to the final, you will have to choose a second specialist subject.
We are hoping to do four shows with four participants in each show. You do not need a camera to be a participant, an image is fine. Camera users are preferable however.
If you're interested in taking part, please complete this form.
Struggling with a specialist subject? Let us help!
Have you played a video game multiple times? How much do you know about that game?
Don't be afraid to get super specific about your specialist subjects. For example you might like a particular series of books, but have a preference.
If you go too broad with a subject, you might get blindsided with a question.
Don't give subjects like "Harry Potter", "Mass Effect", "Pokémon", "Scrubs", and "Red Dwarf". Unless you are confident that your knowledge is broad enough to cover that subject.
Choose instead a subject like "The book 'Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban'", "The life of Garrus Vakarian from 2183 CE - 2186 CE" (hey look Clare's specialist subject), "Pokémon X and Y", "Scrubs season one", and "Red Dwarf from 1988 to 1999". Our question masters will not shy away from a challenge.
