University Challenge S51E26 King's, London v Imperial

[@lightningmcdweeb]

I kid you not as an Indian, I'm not sure without state borders how many of my countrymen would be able to name these states and their capitals. I got lucky, but i did take longer than Zeng (embarrassingly so). Imperial Zeng is my hero

That's Singapore for you, no coincidence that that tiny country has topped the PISA rankings for years. Insane

Boom! Tetris for Zeng!

[@overgrownkudzu]

some of the questions were really lucky for Zeng but still that was kind of a massacre

[@kuchen_]

We mostly see the Qs that the contestants buzz for. Some of them aren’t answered by anyone so it gets cut from the edit, according to Paxo. That’s why it looks as if there are more geography Qs during Zeng’s run.

no, not lucky. He knew.

9:28 got that right wtf

Am I alone in thinking that Jeremy Paxman sounds slightly inebriated here?

[@ProfessorPotatoPhD]

He retired from the show due to Parkinson's disease. It can cause speech difficulties apparently.

[@DerekWalsh-l4i]

@ProfessorPotatoPhD I'm sorry to hear that, I did not know. Thank you for the information. I wish Mr. Paxman well for the future.

[@jesjes5255]

jackson doesn't do much and doesn't know much. Acts as if the answer has just slipped his mind 😅

[@yashagarwal6821]

he is pretty good, although he prolly knows less than his teammates, there are other rounds where he does quite well

Bro you probably didn't watch the full video, you just watched max zeng highlights

I wish Jeremy Paxman would stop putting an r on the ends of words ending in a. I thought he was supposed to be a professional broadcaster, and this is lazy and, confusing and distracting!

@@Korvisio not the point. People who haven't heard the word will imitate the pronunciation and miss spell if they write it down. It becomes unclear!

Paxman is much less lively here than he was, say, five years prior to this
