We couldn’t be more thrilled to announce that local sailing legend and Olympic Gold Medallist Eilidh McIntyre will be appearing on BBC One’s Celebrity Mastermind this Saturday 26th March at 18:30. Wish her all the best and tune in if you can to see her answering questions about her specialist subject, Karl Lagerfeld. Thank you so much Eilidh!

Would you like to take part in the next series of Mastermind?

Hat Trick & Hindsight Productions are currently casting contestants for the next series of the regular Mastermind programme on BBC Two presented by Clive Myrie. Do you have what it takes to go under the spotlight?

  • Anyone can apply as long you are aged 18 or over and are a resident of the UK (including the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man).
  • You do need some General Knowledge and at least 3 specialist subject ideas – the wider the range the better!
  • As well as regular quizzers, people who might not usually apply for quiz shows are strongly being encouraged to get involved.
  • Hat Trick/Hindsight are committed to making programmes as inclusive as possible and are particularly interested in receiving applications from under-represented groups.  

How to apply

  • It’s really easy to apply, just email mastermind.hth@hattrick.com for a link to the online application form.
  • After you have submitted your application, one of the casting team may get in touch to organise a Zoom audition with you. They’ll do a short general knowledge quiz and learn more about why you’ve chosen your Specialist Subjects. The audition will only take 15-20 minutes and is very relaxed and really good fun!

Auditions are currently underway, with the heats filming in Belfast this summer.

Applications close on Monday 9th May 2022 at midnight.  The sooner people get their application in the better!!!

    The Ghost of Christmas Waste

    The festive season can generate lots of waste, but the Final Straw Foundation offers some tips to help curb this. Primarily, try more sustainable packaging for online orders and use recyclable wrapping paper. Donating unwanted gifts instead of trashing them, as well as being mindful of Christmas food waste, can make a difference. Also, reducing plastic waste at Christmas is crucial, with options such as kerbside recycling, and plastic-free alternatives for gifts and food. Visit the full blog post to find out more!
