Warwick got off to a very slow start and ended up winning with 255 points. Oxford only had about 105 points at the end. A great performance.

University Challenge. Two teams of white privileged males answer questions from a haughty white privileged male and former investor in Ingenious film schemes/scams.
A bit more interesting was the re-examination of the Shipman case on BBC TWO. Too many questions unanswered for far too long.

Was he really? Only caught a fleeting glympse as Mrs Bobsworth flicked through what was worth watching.sunlight wrote:
Two teams of white privileged males? That comment displays a delusion. One of last nights captains is Japanese. Quite often there are many non-white team members. Privileged, most maybe, white only? definately not.
Not a problem as I watched it late last night.sunlight wrote:
Sorry Wander.
Got a bit of a mauling in some papers on the basis that it lacks the satire of the original and tends to pander to the politicians. Good puppets, tame dialogue.okocha wrote:

Started series 1 of Borgen - it's a bit like House of Cards meets Designated Survivor only it's in Denmark and dubbed. Lead woman looks strikingly like Helen Mirren and her spin doctor looks like Ewan McGregor so there's eye candy for both me and the missus who loves it as it's got the "strong woman in a patriarchal society" theme amongst others. Plenty of sharp political manoeuvring but I do have a slight bone to pick which is the voiceover artists were clearly chosen to match British stereotypes with appropriate regional or posh accents. Only 3 episodes in but generally so far so good and with 3 series to go at it should keep the missus amused for a while.
Thats the meet and greet, my ticket was slightly cheaper at £75. Well worth it to be up close with 3 stars of the best TV show ever made in my opinion.Natasha Whittam wrote:£85? I'd expect to appear in it for that money.
