The 2006-7 series (the 13th, if you’re interested) of University Challenge started on BBC2 last night. The first match was a fairly gripping game between the University of Wales, Aberystwyth and Bristol University. With just a couple of questions to go, the two teams were level-pegging with 185 points each.
But I don’t know what happened next. Either the BBC was running late or our PVR was running fast (most likely the latter, piece of rubbish that it is). It stopped recording. Two minutes from the end. Aargh.
So… did anyone else happen to watch it? Could you provide a question-by-question account of the last couple of questions? Even better, did you record it? Anyone?
And a date for your diary: Monday 25th September, 8.30pm. Durham University may or may not be on University Challenge. I couldn’t really say…
