Have you done your Rising revision?
It's a huge year for Ireland as the Republic celebrates the centenary anniversary of the 1916 Easter Rising.
You may have heard something about it?
There's no shortage of articles, events and talks to mark the occasion, but one of the more unique ways the anniversary has come into the public light was when John Savage chose it as his specialist subject on the challenging BBC quiz show, Mastermind.
John didn't fare too badly in his knowledge of the Rising, but see if you can beat his score in the video below.
Incidentally, JOE's specialist subject for Mastermind is The Emancipation of the Dissonance in the music of Arnold Schoenberg and others in the Twentieth Century, but we haven't been invited on to the show yet to show that off.
Some day...
