We’ll be cheering on Wadham tonight as they take on St. Catz, Cambridge on #UniversityChallenge
Good luck to all involved, including Aarav Billore, Arthur Bellamy (who happens to also be our wonderful access officer), Anjali Cheung, and team captain Jonathan Worden.

Enormous congratulation to Imperial!! A masterful display from an amazing team of quizzers. Certainly a nail-biting finish to the series.

Well, what a ridiculous standard they set tonight. Utterly brilliant, charming, inspirational young people, and an outstanding run from @ucl. As for @imperialcollege? They're record breakers now. Thank YOU so much for watching this, my first season hosting ##UniversityChallenge
We reach the Grand Final of #UniversityChallenge tonight 20.30 @BBCTwo and @BBCiPlayer.
@amolrajan has brought his warmth and character to the show. The students come into the studio excited, relaxed and enthusiastic. Amol's persona is a breath of fresh air.
The inventor of Scrabble, Alfred Butts, was a fervent misogamist (meaning he was morally opposed of marriage). He claims to have developed the game with the aim that it would cause disagreements between couples and, eventually, divorce.
