Mastermind is a British quiz show, well-known for its challenging questions, intimidating setting and air of seriousness. Devised by Bill Wright, the basic format of Mastermind has never changed — four contestants face two rounds, one on a specialised subject of the contestant's choice, the other a general knowledge round. Wright drew inspiration from his experiences of being interrogated by the Gestapo during World War II.

  • Mastermind is a British quiz show, well-known for its challenging questions, intimidating setting and air of seriousness. Devised by Bill Wright, the basic format of Mastermind has never changed — four contestants face two rounds, one on a specialised subject of the contestant's choice, the other a general knowledge round. Wright drew inspiration from his experiences of being interrogated by the Gestapo during World War II. The atmosphere is helped by Mastermind's famously ominous theme music, "Approaching Menace" by the British composer Neil Richardson.
  • Mastermind är ett brittiskt frågesportprogram som sänds i TV-kanalen BBC. Fyra deltagare tävlar i två ronder. Den ena ronden är i något specialämne som deltagaren väljer själv och den andra i ett mer allmänt ämne. Programmet leddes 1972-1997 av den skotske programledaren Magnús Magnússon.
