University Challenge S46E30 Warwick vs Bristol

It's been a while since I've had a chance to watch the broadcast, so I actually have seen what I'm uploading. Anyway, our match today is between teams with one loss, Bristol and Warwick, looking for chance to fight another day. You know my favourite and it looks like they're (somewhat) on better form today, although they should've known better on some questions (Somehow I've seen the Richard VIII fact at least 3 times on BBC in the last month). Still, a nail-biting finish despite of the low overall score. I blame that darn long music round (Better than opera, but 2 songs too much!). Original air date 20.2.2017

Never had shouting "FRITZ LANG" been so consequential. Go badass Rudd.

[@BeaCassidy]

FRITZ LANG!!!

That was so undignified from him or....

[@piaxno]

Suspense until the very last minute! I literally screamed when Rudd nailed it - such an intelligent person. But they all are, Bristol wasn't so bad itself

[@KSfan4ever]

Wow! What a match, and surprise ending! Thanks psi for uploading!

[@n0bambin0]

That was an emotional rollercoaster

[@happykid27]

No! And they were in the lead for most of it. It was fun having you, Bristol.

[@haendel8a]

that was the most exciting match I have watched so far!

[@mathisj6582]

Clarke, the only contestant in UC's history that has realized it's just a quizz.

[@istvanklein]

I'm very sorry for Bristol, they were a great team and I was rooting for them. They should have marched all the way to the final and won it. They were scuppered by a few unfortunate incorrect interruptions late in the game. My new favourites now are Emmanuel Cambridge.

[@caroline2469]

Such an exciting match! I was on the edge of my bed at the end haha

[@TitanOfClash]

This was the best episode yet!!

[@criticuttam]

Wow, what a match. Love Warwick, although they were sub-par. Thought Paxo was enjoying the match too.

[@AirwavesV2]

Thank you for your uploads! Much appreciated :)

[@jesmalar]

Exciting conclusion!

[@vncntd3962]

I've never seen anything like this. It's not just that Bristol lost, but they lost by having their lead cut by a number of premature attempts to answer questions that cut their total from 130 to 110. If they had just sat on their hands for the last ten minutes they would have won. Very odd.

[@jamesconroy1988]

Most astounding comeback I've witnessed on University Challenge, assisted by the fact that Bristol were rather inconsistent and flaky big wins in some matches and easily beaten in other matches.

[@andressena9688]

Yo that was crazy, can't wait for Captain Monkman next week

[@suwaidajalal]

Why do people NEED to comment on someone's appearance or personal lifestyle choices in an intellectual contest? What is the point? Warwick made a great recovery while Bristol made a couple of mistakes at the end that cost them the contest. Really exciting finish! Thanks for uploading "psimanjuntak but I believe you mean Henry VIII in your description, not Richard VIII. :)

[@YawnGod]

Because as an evolved primate you should know that the fluctuations in your neuronal circuitry are not representative of reality.

[@ippys1997]

The hate directed to Bristol is almost entirely attributed to Clarke. What a win by Warwick! Hope the progress to the next round.

[@beetorstevie]

30-130 became 120-110!

[@gnowyrret7450]

yes, had bristol just sat there for the last 10min, they would hv won 130-120

No, they would have been charged with bringing the game into disrepute.

[@renzo6490]

Never Give Up !

[@Dunkcanio]

Better team overall lost, but them's the breaks.

[@lizclegg7556]

Many thanks for posting this.

[@josephkarl2061]

Also, I don't think (or I'd be very surprised if) Warwick go any further. Now that we're down to the business end of things, I think there are 3 better teams out there, based on the form shown so far.

[@AH-rh9eb]

Yes, I wasn't sure but this sealed it for me regarding Warwick's fate. They just aren't near as good as any of the other remaining teams.

[@bonnijee]

Warwick did very well to come back from behind (130-30!), just like Emmanuel Cambridge has done in all their matches and they seem to have gone through. Meanwhile Paxman seemed to have a problem with Bristol, not giving them much time, and not allowing what was obviously meant to be Glucose. Fortunately it didn't change the result.

[@josephkarl2061]

bsj198 Can't argue with any of that - I'm just not sure it's enough anymore, given the calibre of the teams to come...

[@justinrapp1585]

Rudd is so damn likeable!!!

She got amusingly excited at the end there.

[@nestorv7627]

one of the best moments of my life: 27:13

[@slightlygrouchy]

Bristol have no one to blame but themselves. They lost 20 points by buzzing prematurely. I was rooting for them, though, and I really do not like Warwick all that much. Moreover, I cannot imagine Warwick going any further. They have too many weaknesses. Anyway, thank you so much for the upload, Psi.

[@ellyliu513]

[@Gracken420]

Rolleston was on a roll, rest of his team not so much

[@nothinbutgood]

kind of irrelevant but rolleston is my GCSE history teacher!

[@brenswee681]

My ears melted at 13:29

[@krtmddhs]

11:44 that was very harsh.. clearly she meant glucose.

[@haendel8a]

Your point is irrational. When she means London but voices out "lamp" it is only fair not to give her the point because in the end surely everybody meant to say the right thing.

[@shmookins]

First ever time hearing or watching this. All I know is that it's 'tough'. Hold my bear, I'll be back after watching... (After watching): yup, it's hard. P.S. I don't understand why they would include questions about movies, darts and songs, though.

[@AmalgamatedTensor]

What a match!

[@staffordahoy679]

Great ending but it looked horribly edited - little/no reaction from audience or either team - my guess is that they had to film it again for some reason (with the same result mind)

Paxman didn't seem too happy at the result !

[@MrYorickJenkins]

Jeremy Paxman untypically even tempered in this one. I enjoy seeing how I do-trying to beat my best score of getting 22 right and four that they didnt. This time got 15 in this one and two that they didnt get. There is usually one question which they dont get which shocks me. This time it was the bird one. Not an ornithologist among them haha

Clarke is cute, but Jackson isn't far behind!

[@justinrapp1585]

Both teams are very likeable but I'm not a huge fan of either captain. They just didn't seem to want to be there

[@yaorito1]

Well, Warwick's still looks like he's having some fun. Losing some of his edge, though.

[@AH-rh9eb]

I think Hutchings seems very nervous, he was having a lot more fun when they were winning. Not sure why Clarke comes across so dully though.

[@limerickgoblin7311]

Well you can keep the bubbly, enthusiastic doctors - I'll take the one who actually knows what she's doing and keeps me healthy.

[@Sungyc1]

Part of the job is communication, you'd like to think the bubbly enthusiastic doctors also know how to keep you healthy, point invalid

[@arts_ambassador]

I'd certainly be more than happy to have Clarke as my doctor. In fact, I'm fantasizing about it right now.

Dramatic win by Warwick! Is Rudd a she-male? The opening and closing music is so annoying.

I always thought anyone with the old M and two V were male .
