Mastermind is a quiz program that has aired on British television for almost 40 years. The standard format is for the contestant to answer a rapid-fire series of questions on a specialized subject of their choice, followed by another round of "general knowledge" questions.
In this segment from 2006, the specialized subject is "The fiction of H.P. Lovecraft." Have a go.

So young and she already has the stuffy, proper, librarian vibe. Besides read and study, what does a girl like her do for fun?

gruntus, I'll let that stand, but it's an incredibly condescending comment.

I'm pretty sure most Americans wouldn't know the great barrier reef was off of Australia, let alone which state. I wish they had more geography classes when I was doing my k-12 run.
