University Challenge - Christmas 2021, Episode 8 (Semi Final 1)

I wonder how much of that score Finklestein put up by himself? 🤔 There were large sections of this episode that felt like it was a 1v1 between the left most chairs of each team

[@beetorstevie]

Yes, in the end he couldn't beat Edinburgh by himself - though he really tried, poor guy.

[@satori4183]

Yup pretty much Slessor vs Finklestein, with six mascots 😄

[@countMonteTristo]

thx for upload, a great match

[@KSfan4ever]

Well, that was enjoyable! I liked how Miles Jupp remembered his Divinity training and answered some religious questions.

[@MagnificentFiend]

Being on _Rev_ probably helped for that too.

How many University Challenge hosts were there?

[@WonderWhatHappened]

Engelbert Humperdinck died in 1921? 6:40 and second question.

[@ReganAtSea]

there's a pop singer who took the composer's name as a stage name which is probably what's confusing you.

[@WonderWhatHappened]

@@ReganAtSea Not much a classical music fan but I must admit I should've know at the very least who he was. Now back to his biography... Thanks!

Don’t think I’ve ever seen a worse captain than Bradfords, don’t think he got a single answer himself and didn’t seem to of ever heard of half the stuff his team were telling him

[@elliechristensen7160]

Paxman was a bit of an a**hole in this episode. He kept hurrying Bradford. What did it matter? They weren't going to win.

Au revoir, asshaawl

Paxman is woke
