Got the music question on UC in about 2 seconds, I was so chuffed! Failed to get *any* of the follow-up questions though


I didn’t know the starter but knew Isaac Hayes in the follow up

Caught up. Got quite a lot of answers this week, pleased with myself (especially spotting the Oxford group)

Also caught up, did OK including the same answer as JK
Feels like the early rounds are getting less tough.

Some sharp contestants last night. Bit of confusion with one of the answers in the missing vowels, the medical student on the left of the winning team looked like she was ready to put a complaint in when the final round was over as she thought they'd lost it I think.

Happy with my solid Dr Who knowledge though.

Yes. She looked angry for s split second. Also dud well screaming out missing vowels, I couldn't work out if one unibteam was very good or the other pants, probably somewhere In-between. A welcome hour, that was for sure...

Yes, I thought there might have been a strongly worded complaint - I thought she had said it correctly. Perhaps the chap did not - I might have to rewatch the incident.

An enjoyable match up, and the right team won for sure - the others seemed remarkably humourless.
