Mastermind

Just to remind everyone, I’m your Mastermind host, John Humphreys. Right Mr. De Mooi, you have two and a half minutes of General Knowledge questions to beat 32 points. But let me remind you first – no interrupting! Here we go.

This object was discovered in 1930 and classified as a planet. NO YOU MUST NOT INTERRUPT! It was downgraded to a dwarf planet in 2006. This followed the discovery of Neptune, and before that Uranus, which was not necessary with the other planets as they can all be seen with the naked eye. This dwarf planet was also visited by the New Horizons space probe – PLEASE KEEP STILL Mr. De Mooi! …in 2015. What is this object call… WHERE ARE YOU GOING MR. DE MOOI??? 

Oh well, no loss. There’s only room for one smug, patronising, posh arsehole round here and that’s me!
