OXTED resident and well-known songwriter Sir Richard Stilgoe will appear on BBC1's Celebrity Mastermind.

Sir Richard, who wrote the lyrics for West End hits Phantom Of The Opera and Starlight Express, founded Godstone's Orpheus Centre in 1998, which provides performing arts for disabled youngsters.

He will be competing in the quiz against poet and comedian Tim Key, Antiques Roadshow glass specialist Andy McConnell and singer-songwriter Amy Macdonald.

The programme was filmed last month, and Sir Richard's specialist subject was British musicals up to 1980.

Sir Richard said: "Anyone who has ever watched Mastermind can imagine how nerve-wracking it is – and they are right. Walking to that chair was the longest walk of my life."

A donation for taking part was made to the Orpheus Centre.

The programme will be screened on Tuesday at 7pm.
