Class is starting to show and the questions fell this week for Brown.

Royal Holloway stormed ahead of a reasonably disjointed Robert Gordon.

We get into old teams, questions falling for ones own self and who is class.

A good old fashioned thumping from a lovely spread of a team in Durham. They're nice and all but I have to say this wasn't end of season quality. We're desperate for the next stage.

An odd little episode. Something to keep the feed ticking along.

A rip roaring game where both sides lead at points. UCL (the people's favourite), mothers and sons, Salmons, heroes and the true joy of it brought them in to the finish.

There's a smidge of conspiracy here but more classy quizzing. There's potential finalists here.

It was a McLaughlin show this week and that's just the way he likes it. Listening back we were really quite kind to him over all, but so was the scoreboard. We must respect knowledge when we see.

I can't believe we've had another tie! Nothing short of absolute scenes

Rob and Ed are both hooked on all things Newnham now. Somehow they stole the hearts and yet they only won by 5 points.

A return to the new year, to our routines and University Challenge. It's wonderful to be back and healthy again.

Robert Gordon split the room - Rob and Ed couldn't agree. But they triumphed all the same

God love you Courtald, you don't know how beautiful you all look!

We had debutants in the competition which is the real story of the week. Heroic for Barb (former winner) to have the presence of mind to realise that it was worth having a documentary let into his life just as his University was pitching for the top spot.

We had Rob proving yet again that having watched lots of episodes helps you get extra points

And a roaring victory for Robert Gordon. Next time it's the second round so we look forward to seeing some familiar faces.

We had such a nice time this week, it was a really lovely episode with quality across the park. So many nice clothes, smiles and questions.

Yes Courtald won in the end (with lots of science answers) but Newnham did so well that I think they could win a few more rounds. We for 2 at least are very excited to see them again.

This was more fun at home than on screen this week. The gongs are hard to choose but the important bit - the reactions, the humanity - oh the humanity - are as sophisticated as ever.

Nottingham scrap through by just 10 points but how did that pass us all by.
