Clive Myrie will be putting some of the nation’s favourite faces through their paces in the current series of Celebrity Mastermind.
This Saturday 4 February (5.35pm), the four celebrities stepping into the spotlight will be actor and comedian Bobby Davro; TV cook Suzie Lee; former Olympic skier Graham Bell; and BBC Radio 1Xtra DJ Remi Burgz.
They will be braving the famous black chair to answer questions on their respective specialist subjects including: Gilbert O’Sullivan, Bridget Jones, Stevie Ray Vaughan and salmon.
Presenter Clive Myrie says: “Our fantastic celebrity line-ups are always a brave bunch. All in the name of charity, they willingly step out of their comfort zones in order to face the icy embrace of the famous black chair. Will they crack under the pressure? Viewers will have to tune in to find out.”
Jimmy Mulville, Managing Director Hat Trick Productions, added: “Given how popular Celebrity Mastermind is proving with audiences it’s clear that watching them squirm answering difficult questions in a leather chair is providing a real public service in these difficult times!”
