THINK you're a Mastermind? The hit BBC Two quiz show is looking for contestants in Basingstoke.

Production companies Hat Trick and Hindsight Productions are currently casting contenders for the next series of the BBC Two quiz show Mastermind.

Do you, or someone you know, have what it takes to sit in the famous black chair?

Know enough about your specialist subject to be forensically tested? How’s your general knowledge? Perhaps you're a pub quiz whizz - if you think you can take on the challenge, why not apply to be on the show?

The production companies are looking to cast a diverse range of people, anyone can apply as long as they are aged 18 or over and are a resident of the UK (including the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man). 

As well as regular quizzers, they also want to encourage people who might not usually apply for quiz shows to get involved. 

Readers can apply by clicking THIS LINK, or by emailing  mastermind.hth@hattrick.com 

After you have submitted your application, one of the casting team may get in touch to organise a Zoom audition with you.

You'll participate in a short general knowledge quiz and explain more about why you’ve chosen your specialist subjects. 

The audition will only take 15-20 minutes and is very relaxed and fun.

Although applications close at midnight on Friday, May 10, readers are encouraged to apply as soon as possible as casting is already underway.
