Applications now open for BBC's Mastermind filming in Belfast
Hat Trick 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? Are you a pub quiz whizz?
What type of people are they looking for?
The team are looking to cast a diverse range of people throughout the whole of the UK. 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, we also want to encourage people who might not usually apply for quiz shows to get involved.
How do you get on the show?
After you have submitted your application, one of the casting team may get in touch to organise a Zoom audition with you. We’ll do a short general knowledge quiz and learn more about why you’ve chosen your Specialist Subjects.
The audition will only take 15-20 minutes - applications close May 8th 2026
