What would your "Specialist Subject" be?

WindSock

How many bones has a grown up got.

RayM

The complete works of the satirist, Christopher Morris.

I remember seeing a contestant choose this topic on Mastermind before, and I knew more than they did, so I'm confident that I wouldn't make a total dick of myself.

Col200sx

The script of Snatch and Terminator 2, I know them both off by heart:o

Dudess

Boringly, The Simpsons (only covering the years when it was good - approximately 1992 to 1999).

I think choosing The Simpsons would be asking for trouble. There is so many background jokes and references that you could be easily caught out.

Alicat

Celebs and mainstream movies. I thought I'd have something better but no point in denying my talents :pac:

Hank_Jones

Yeah I'd say Friends or films from 1970 onwards.

My mother would be so proud....

Agricola

The life of Scipio Africanus

LiNgWiStIkZ

Probably the Metal Gear Solid series!

Thomas828

How about "Quotes from Mr Bean" or "the Operas of J. S. Bach" or "Hungarian Navy"

True. The questions can be quite obscure. I've only scored moderately on subjects I thought I'd be an expert in, and I've seen the same thing happening for contestants.

Screw Scipio, Hannibal FTW!

Hmm maybe George Orwell or Hunter S. Thompson books. Possibly also Warfare from 1095 to 1945 but i wont hold myself to that.

Thomas828

1066 and All That. The Sellar & Yeatman version, of course.

It's hard to find a chick that likes sci fi. It's just one more reason why we're better than them!

I met my wife-to-be when I was basking in the deepest mires of my personal nerd-dom. Playing a card game based on Star Trek in a comic book shop. She was the new security guard, gorgeous girl in the oversized uniform her boss gave her. I stalked her around the shop for a while and perstered her a bit. That was over 4 years ago.

Thankfully Star Trek taught me tolerance of other races and cultures. Otherwise I'd have made a massive racist remark about Polish people in general, and would have scared her away.

kowloon

Every time I think I know something about a topic I meet someone who knows more about it.

Capt'n Midnight

Members of the set of even prime numbers.

Galvasean

brummytom

That's quite sad

DazMarz

The Sopranos. Sad, after all I've done in life and all the education I've had, that my specialist subject would be an American television drama. Albeit the best television programme ever made, but still...........

Sir, you are nothing short of an inspiration. May you and your gorgeous but shodily attired polish wife live long and prosper:D

So that would be The Wire then?

Mine would be Pixar. Not that I would get them all right at this point (although I'd do quite well), but I'd quite enjoy the research.

at least its not Lost

my subject would be survival in the zombie apocalypse although the only way to win that round would be to unleash the apocalypse and see what happens :cool:
