It’s on Beeb 1 at the moment.
My own would be the works of H.P. Lovecraft.
I'd struggle for another subject in the unlikely event I were to proceed to the next round 😀
What would be your area of expertise?
Procasturbation
Polis Persecution, Avon and Somerset 1998-present.
Eurovision Song Contest.
What tyres
Polis Persecution, Avon and Somerset 1998-present.

Jenna Jameson
Cake.
alternative treatment technologies for clinical waste;
or
Health and safety failures in MBT-AD and IVC plants
or
niche singlespeed bits (i'd be extra ace at this one)
The life and works of Tom Howard 2010-present day.
Sherlock Holmes, probably.
Or Manchester pubs, 1985 - 2000.
Although they reckon you should always go for something new that you
have no previous knowledge of & approach the subject from a position of ignorance.
So lots to go at then. 🙂
Pron
Golf GTI 1975-1992
The general knowledge section seemed particularly easy tonight. I only got 4 wrong. Dumbed down for the celebs?
deffo dumbed down for the celebs.
Specialist subject - I have none 😳 -that is the truth
The Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy.
Red Dwarf.
Get me and my knowledge of important subjects.
Questions were the answer is London.
Q) capital of England
Q) album title with city missing '------ calling'
Etc..
The life and times of Field Marshal Sir Harry Paget Flashman VC, KCB, KCIE; Chevalier of the Légion d'Honneur; U.S. Medal of Honor; San Serafino Order of Purity and Truth, 4th Class
A true British hero who strode across the British Empire (and beyond), appearing front centre at just about every major historical incident between 1842 and 1905, surviving on his three natural talents: horsemanship, facility with foreign languages, and fornication 😉
Discworld
Cakes and tea around but not excluding the Inschriach Nursery.
+1 Discworld.
I think I would struggle with a specialist subject without studying for one. I'm pretty good at pub quiz type general knowledge. I know nothing about everything and everything about nothing. Or just about enough to appear a smart arse.

Actually no, come to think of it I'd pick something more straightforward. The Koran, or something.
😉
Heavyweight boxing 1892 - present day.
😀 That would take some hefty study.Hora's bikes 2007-2012
Anoraks available from Bolton market from 11.99 to 18.99.....
I will get my anorak.
I have no idea. Being your typical polymath Im more "Jack of" than "Master of" 🙂
I wouldnt mind becoming a smartarse on Peter Ustinov though.
The back of my hand.....as I know it like...
another one for the discworld here...
Or the arguments and essays of TJ and Cynic-Al....
Peep Show series 1-7
Haven't seen the new episodes yet...
Or....
Technical mtb trails between Lenggries and Schliersee, Bavaria.
The asterix series of books
conservative healthcare reforms,
nobody has any idea what theyre trying to achiev , so easy to blunder a way through the questions, as there is no sane answer.
I'm pretty confident I couldn't come up with a specialist subject.
I'm not sure if this makes me happy or sad.
Mountainbikes of the late 1980s
Pop music of the early 1980s
Pleasuring women.
isotope geochemistry
and then
punk rock
and then
pubs in Bolton in the 70s and 80s
The West Wing. Or the Halo series of games.
Tonight was pretty easy though compared to the normal questions.
Shimano Groupsets 1980 to 2010
labsey - Member
The West Wing.
Ditto, but it has already been a subject.
At a push I'd pick the films of Stanley Kubrick or DC comics with a leaning towards Batman (could I specify?).
... I've wasted my life.
Ditto, but it has already been a subject.
Damn. I don't really watch it very much.
Japanese motorcycles of the 1970's and 80's.
Ps Darrell - good call with the Bowton pubs. ;0)
Speed camera locations on the a90
Goddamn it sparkle I was doing that. Without looking what's the capacity of a CBx 1000.
Rebus. That or works of Isaac Asimov. Though I suspect either would involve a lot of work, and that having read all of those books multiple times probably wouldn't cut it.
In reality then I'd probably be far better off with history of off-road unicycling 😉
I'd probably go with the life and times of Philip J. Fry actually, on thinking about it.
The efficacy of mediaeval torture methods when used upon Piers Morgan.
Not something I know a great deal about, but I'd be willing to do extensive research.
zippykona - the 6 cyclinder bohemoth? Not totally sure but seem to remember of that era Hondas being 1cc over which screwed yer insurance. Could have been the 900F though
