I’m totally going to check that out when we’re done… Before I distract myself with that, though, how did you go about converting that show to a board game?

The objective is to get the other players to believe your own false answers to gain maximum points, while answering questions correctly yourself. The game has long been coveted as a weekly prize for best answer and proof of credentials- the radio trivia equivalent to the Countdown teapot, but thankfully much more readily available. James O’Brien’s Mystery Hour – a game played on O’Brien’s LBC radio show – is getting its own board game courtesy of Big Sky Games.No nonsense LBC Radio host James O’Brien first came to my attention during one of the pandemic’s many lockdowns.

Questions can come from the world of science, literature, language or be as bonkers as “Why do pigeons have manky feet? Only just over two years – but as you can see, we’ve already secured a number of exciting licensed titles. After hiding for almost a year, she now finds herself facing multiple charges for helping Jeffrey Epstein sexually exploit and abuse under-age women which could lead to her spending the rest of her life in jail. The Promotion will run on Thursdays between 13 January 2022 to 30 December 2024 on LBC Global is the Promoter. Everything is done very professionally with this company and always lets you know every step of the process.And as you say, your latest release is based on LBC radio host James O’Brien’s show, The Mystery Hour. Our group did spot one glaring omission in the rules though: there is no penalty attached to incorrectly guessing an answer before the correct and false answers are revealed. She dismissed it at first, but then the appearances became more and more frequent and noticeable - he was there when she met friends, when she travelled across London, at her local train station, and even when he followed her home. In this podcast series you’ll hear from offenders, the police, crime experts and investigators as we delve into the workings of the criminal mind. Interaction reaches its pinnacle as ideas on why an answer may or may not be true are exchanged, which can often lead players along odd and exciting tangents.

The objective of the game is to convince other players with a plausible false answer, while answering other players’ questions correctly. If you request that your personal details be removed prior to the conclusion of a Promotion, you will forfeit your right to enter the Promotion and/or claim any prize and we reserve the right to select another entrant to participate in the Promotion or withdraw the prize and select another winner, as applicable.

Every week, James O’Brien enlists the help of LBC listeners to solve the questions you’ve always wondered the answer to on ‘Mystery Hour’. This flip of a coin approach to trivia hardly emulates the sixty minutes of intellectual stimulation that fans of O’Brien’s Mystery Hour have come to know and love.

Having said this, the more we played, the more we settled on the idea of James O’Brien’s Mystery Hour having all of the ingredients for a fiery Christmas Day family gaming experience. The James O'Brien Mystery Hour Board Game promotion (‘Promotion’) is organised by Global (as defined in the General Terms and Conditions). He was delighted with everything we suggested, but then his daughters scrutinised our proposal – and they’re not as forgiving as James! Enjoyed this because you don't need to be really in the know about politics, sports, general affairs, science etc, although the questions do cover all these topics. Psyching an opponent out by claiming you know an answer for 3 points before hearing the options (even though you don’t) can work in your favour at critical points in the game.In this new podcast series, Hunting Ghislaine, reporter John Sweeney investigates a fairy story which happens the wrong way round, of how a princess ends up accused of being the monster and no-one at all ends up happily ever after. IMPORTANT: The Promotion is subject to these Specific Rules and the General Terms and Conditions which are available here (together, the ‘Promotion Terms and Conditions’). Our group of three were keen not to let these early setbacks dampen our expectations of the game, and we were subsequently pleased with the quick set up and speedy explanation of the rules.
