The Museum Of Curiosity, formerly entitled The Professor of Curiosity, is a comedy panel game commissioned by BBC Radio 4, to start some time in early 2008.^[1]

John Lloyd stars as The Professor of Curiosity, overseer of an online Museum. The show invites amusing experts and expert amusers to submit new exhibits to Professor Lloyd and his curator Bill Bailey to assess. The type of exhibit accepted by the Museum may be a simple object with a curious history, an awesome phenomenon like a deep-sea hydrothermal vent or even a concept like Silence, The Church of England or Purple.

A pilot was recorded at the Institute of Physics in London on 16 April 2007.

Joining Lloyd and Bailey were Alastair Fothergill, Victoria Finlay and Simon Munnery.
