Frankly the shouting Canadian boiled my p�*ss from the very first time I encountered him, so watching him hand victory to the Paxman-baiting jewish fella by repeatedly interrupting incorrectly was really rather satisfying.

Fear not, Charles, this lovely investment bank of mine will have my job in Mumbai, Bangalore or - worse yet - Bournemouth in no time. :-(Quote:

Meh. University Challenge is too easy. Well, at least the questions that aren't on science and maths are. But they don't count because science and maths don't really have any place in a quiz anyway.Quote:

Just watched the final and feel that you were very harsh on the Canadian freak. He carried tthe team in every round and put his balls on the line in the Final, unlike any of his bottleless team mates. Not sur about the bloke doing the presentationn at the end though......he seemed a bit weird!!!

But all those 5 point penalties!Quote:

three or four only, on my count and as least as many correct ones........I just think that you don't like him!Quote:
