As everyone on here is a railway-geek of one kind or another, I thought you might like to know that one of the specialist subjects on tomorrow night's Mastermind is "The LNER". That's Friday April 16th 2010, for anyone not reading this on, erm, Thursday; at 8pm on BBC2. There aren't any signalling questions in it, but there's a fairly broad variety of other LNER-period questions.

Just a quick heads up that this is about to start NOW on BBC Two.

Thanks must go to Forest Pines for originally posting up about this to let us all know.

Hope many of you can watch.

EDITED TO ADD: The young looking one (call Will, I believe) is the one doing the subject on the LNER.

There was a question in the Ealing Films section about sombody being killed in the Ladykillers - by being hit on the head by a railway signal (an LNER one).

It's a useful site, that one - I used it to revise things like class histories (and memorise all the wheel-arrangement letters in class names - which was completely unnecessary).

I wasn't really listening at all to the Ealing Studios questions. Going last wasn't good.
