University Challenge

Oh no-it's the High Five bloke.

[jim360]

Maybe the German guy will beat him.

[JimF]

Which is the high-five guy?

[jim360]

Golfinos.

[Sipowicz]

No high fives tonight, but a fist bump from the other team!

[Prudie]

Two very in your face captains faced off tonight.

[cashier]

The German bloke is very arrogant isn't he? I don't understand why he always says 'I'm from Berlin, Germany' as if no one knows where Berlin is.

[Sipowicz]

I thought he was going to push his thumb through the desk top!

[Mamyalynne]

There are approximately 30 places called Berlin in America and others elsewhere too.

It was an edgy game with much nervous water sipping.

[ladybirder]

They were well matched I thought. Odd bunch though.

Really gripping semi final. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

// The German bloke is very arrogant isn't he? //

The television lies. He's fine in person.

[ichkeria]

I don't think any of them are arrogant to be honest. Just hyped up and keen to win.
A bit of a surprise final line-up in the end, but I am delighted to see old Teddy Hall in the final :-)

[jim360]

I'm chuffed to see Edinburgh make it, too. Especially surprising considering how strong Durham looked, but it only takes a little luck for two evenly-matched teams to trade wins.

[Peter Pedant]

yeah close and close makes good telly
you dont want one side shigging the other - people watch corrie

[ichkeria]

Watching Herr Leo poised on the buzzer was a sight to behold :-)

[maggiebee]

Missed the end of the last semi-final as I had to go out. Which teams are in the final?

[jim360]

Edinburgh v. St. Edmund's Hall, Oxford.

[Peter Pedant]
