  • It's Battle of (for?) Cambridge today. On one hand, we've got a quite fine team from (again!) Peterhouse along with their quite cute captain, sans the two most entertaining characters (well, the remake is quite as good as the original, isn't it). On the other hand, we've got a team from Queens' that promises a lot, but sometimes needs to muster enough courage just to open their mouth (and give some shit, so to speak). Seriously, if both of them could get their act together (cue to Mr. Lin), I'd be happy both of them back (yes, BOTH of them). Original air date 1.8.2016
    Note: With heavy heart, I might have to stop uploading starting next month. Nothing is settled yet, so just an announcement for now.
    Note 2: I am really becoming an idiot, but could someone please tell me what is the Liszt piece on the music round?

    Never has a lady from New York sounded so unlike a lady from New York

    I could barely understand Voake's thick New York accent

    Queens' were done out of that by the ridiculous amounts of time that Peterhouse took conferring. One thing about UC I've always wanted to see is more consistency with the time allowed during the bonus questions.

    I died when they were all screaming Estonia and then Voake said Finland.

    That was... a pretty bad description of Ramsey theory. I doubt most mathematicians would get that clue. (I didn't!)

    The Liszt piece was the Hungarian Rhapsody. Some of the other teams need to listen to some classical music! Enjoying watching from New Zealand.

    +yaorito1 I sincerely hope not! if you're not from the UK, you're not really able to watch these things! Keep us updated, and if you can't, I've gotta start hunting!

      You can watch University Challenge outside of the UK on the BBC website if you use the Holà plug-in.

      It's hit and miss. After a while the Beeb catches on. Sometimes the retry works, but often not. This is why I am so grateful to psimanjuntak (yaorito1??) for uploading University Challenge.

    Why do numerous Oxford and Cambridge colleges get to enter? Durham and York colleges don't. Not because of the great unbearable injustice of it all, just why?

    • @mathiasormestadfrendem5246
      @mathiasormestadfrendem5246 Před 7 lety +5

      At Oxford and Cambridge the colleges are responsible for undergraduate teaching, while at Durham and York that is the responsibility of the central university. However, the line gets a bit blurry as graduate colleges also get to participate from Oxford and Cambridge, even though they are not in charge of the teaching of their students.

      Voake looks like she's sucking on a lemon all the time and her snappy comment to her team mate before she made a big boo boo and said " Finland" looked rather rude.

    A lot of literature questions. How curious. Almost as if they were tailored to the subjects of the students.

    Venturini - being a smart arse is fine, but wait until you get to the Final next time.
    Verdict - 25% of the Queens' team were not as smart as they thought - 75% were too shy to speak.

    OK, so maybe my tastes are somewhat *leftfield*, but Adamson is just gorgeous, in a porcelain doll kind of manner. He also wins 2016's wardrobe prize for that gorgeous shirt. Shame that the performance didn't quite match the visuals :-)
