O'Brien is married to Lucy McDonald and has two daughters. [17] Politically, O'Brien prefers to be described as ' liberal' rather than 'left-wing'. [43] O'Brien was raised in the Roman Catholic faith and refers to himself as a Christian. He is a Kidderminster Harriers F.C. fan.

There is a correct answer and a false answer on each card, but the player asking the question (the host) is allowed to invent a false answer of their own to replace the one on the card before the game begins. Three points are scored if a player answers the question posed correctly without hearing the correct and false answers first as prompts. One point is scored if a player gets the correct answer, having heard both the correct and false answers (a 50:50 chance). The host can also score two points from each player who chooses their invented answer as the correct answer. The game is relatively simple at its heart, both for good and for bad. James asked about Arthur's qualifications and he replied, "I've taught palaeography and ancient notation at London University for forty years." The Mystery Hour Board Game won’t change the world but for fans of trivia or those simply looking for a casual family game that will teach you interesting things and ignite discussion, this game certainly deserves a round of applause. Just maybe not the rapturous round of applause that Mystery Hour fans may have been hoping for.James asked if he'd had a go on the flute, because if anybody would be allowed to play it, it'd be Arthur! We reserve the right to substitute the prize with another prize of equal or greater value at our absolute discretion. O'Brien has stated that he voted for Boris Johnson in the 2008 London mayoral election, though he now regrets his vote. [41] Entry is restricted to one entry per person; duplicate entries will be excluded from the Promotion.

To enter the Promotion, you must call the studio on 0345 6060 973 (the ‘ Phone Line’) during James O’Brien’s Mystery Hour Show on Thursdays from 13 January 2022 to Thursday 28 December 2023 between 1200-1300. Things can be quite slow to get going - this will frustrate some but please others. Each player is encouraged to look through the cards they have been dealt, familiarise themselves with the text on each card and think up their own false answers (if they wish) before the game begins. Our gaming group approached this with varying degrees of application - some were burning to get going, whereas I was keen to take my time to come up with alternative but plausible false answers, but felt under pressure from the others to start playing whilst doing so. If due to any Covid Measures, we are unable to fulfil a prize or perform any of our other obligations under the Promotion Terms and Conditions, then we shall not be in breach of the Promotion Terms and Conditions. In accordance with Clause 19 below, in these circumstances, we reserve the right to substitute the prize with another prize of equal or greater value at our absolute discretion.
