Synopsis

In the climactic final of the venerable quiz show, John Humphrys poses the questions that will determine the next Mastermind. The finalists will face scrutiny on a diverse range of specialist subjects: the cinematic world of the Marx Brothers, the national parks of the United States, Owain Glyndwr and his rebellion, Olivia Manning's *Fortunes of War* novels, the theatres designed by Frank Matcham, and the life and works of Mary Cassatt.
