and her poker playing skills, Baths? Not that I am an aficionado as it could be addictive, so I don't....

[Bathsheba]

yes DT...I've heard she's an excellent poker player,....not my area I'm afraid.

" I just love it when those expensively educated young toffs can answer a question about quantum physics and covalences, or other such high-level stuff, but have never heard of Mozart !

Years ago I bought a foam brick, that you can throw at the telly, and it is always much in evidence when UC is on ! "

Hopefully you never found occasion to throw it when this particular "expensively-educated young toff" was on?

UNIVERSITY CHALLENGE! GREAT! I got three answers correct tonight! WOW!!

[Svejk]

I believe he got a real one that night, jim.

[jim360]

Or those six nights, but who's counting?

Mind, I'd have wanted to throw it at myself sometimes!

[Peter Pedant]

UC us up there for length of transmission along with coronation street and Dr Who .....

uni of Manch takes it seriously enough to give the team coaching

and having gone to eton is NOT a prerequisite
unlike for example becoming prime minisster

[Svejk]

Did that take you near the final, jim?

[jim360]

Made it to the final stage of the quarter-finals in the end, ie six teams left. On the other hand, that record of six appearances includes the unenviable feat of managing to lose as many times as is possible on the show.
