Is Amol Rajan now a better University Challenge host than Jeremy Paxman?

Amol Rajan's deadpan 'We need jungle' ruling on a drum-and-bass answer turned into days of memes, and he says the reaction went bonkers. The new series is back on Monday nights with the usual mix of brutal starters and nervous laughter. Has Rajan made the chair his own, or is Paxman's shadow too big?

Should Manchester United build their defence around Leny Yoro after his France debut?

Yoro made his senior France debut against Belgium and reportedly won all ten of his duels as Les Bleus came from behind to win 4-1. United fans have waited for him to stay fit and show what the fee was for. Is he the centre-back to build the next United around, or are we getting carried away after one international?

Is controlling brain cells with light the most exciting medical science of our time?

This year's Nobel Prize in medicine went to Karl Deisseroth, Peter Hegemann and Georg Nagel for optogenetics, the technique that lets scientists switch individual neurons on and off with light. It has already transformed how researchers study memory, emotion and behavior. Is this the breakthrough that will reshape treatment, or mainly a lab tool for now?

Are you handing out cheaper candy this Halloween because of chocolate prices?

A 100-piece variety bag now averages about $17, up 71% since 2021, with chocolate taking the biggest hit from cocoa costs. Shoppers are drifting toward gummies, sour candy and sales hunting to keep trick-or-treating affordable. Do you cut back, switch it up, or go big anyway?

Would you wear $349 audio-only smart glasses instead of earbuds?

Meta's new Ray-Ban Meta Audio glasses drop the camera entirely, keeping speakers, microphones and the AI assistant in a lighter frame that ships October 13 for $349. Removing the camera is meant to ease privacy worries, but it also removes the headline feature. Is this the smart glasses you'd actually wear, or a solution looking for a problem?

Is Missouri a real College Football Playoff team after routing Florida?

Missouri hammered No. 8 Florida 45-17 and jumped from No. 25 to No. 14 in the AP poll, with playoff models now giving them roughly a one-in-three shot. The SEC schedule doesn't get easier from here. Are the Tigers a genuine playoff threat, or did they catch Florida on the wrong day?

Should the NFL feature gospel artists like Kirk Franklin in more halftime shows?

Kirk Franklin brought gospel to the Superdome's Monday night 'Domecoming' celebration, and it got people talking well beyond football fans. Halftime shows usually chase the biggest pop names, but faith music has a huge, loyal audience that rarely gets that stage. Would more of this make halftime better, or should it stay a one-off?

Who walks out of Money in the Bank as Women's World Champion?

Monday's number-one contender match between Becky Lynch and Liv Morgan fell apart into chaos when Stephanie Vaquer wiped out both of them, and now it's a triple threat for the title at Money in the Bank. Vaquer has the momentum, Becky has the experience and Liv always seems to find a way. Who's your pick?

Should the Yankees move on from Aaron Boone if the Rays finish the sweep?

New York committed four errors, three of them in the first inning, and dropped Game 2 to Tampa Bay 5-2 to fall into an 0-2 ALDS hole. Ben Rice homered twice, but the lineup has scored two runs in two games and the World Series drought is staring at 17 seasons. If the Rays close it out at Yankee Stadium, is that on the manager or the roster?

Is Bijan Robinson the most dangerous running back in the NFL right now?

Bijan ripped off a 59-yard touchdown on Atlanta's third snap and finished with 145 yards and two scores as the Falcons ran the Saints out of their own building, 45-24. Atlanta piled up 205 rushing yards and is suddenly tied for first in the NFC South. Is he the best back in football, or is this one dominant night against a reeling defense?

Is a £408 Glastonbury ticket still worth it after another 42-minute sellout?

Glastonbury 2027 general tickets went in 42 minutes, at £408 each before travel, food, and kit. Fans who missed out are already plotting for the spring resale. Is it still the best value weekend in British music, or has it priced out the people who made it special?

Is Jude Bellingham now more important to England than Harry Kane?

Bellingham scored once and set up three in Croatia, the first England player with three assists in a game in years. Kane keeps chasing records, but it's Bellingham who seems to make everything tick. Who's the one player England can least afford to lose?

Do space telescope discoveries excite you more than crewed space missions?

Webb just captured evidence of planet-shattering collisions in young star systems, the kind of chaos that may have built worlds like ours. Robotic science keeps delivering jaw-dropping results for a fraction of what crewed flights cost. Which part of space exploration actually gets you hyped?

Does Digger's flop mean Tom Cruise should stick to franchise movies?

Iñárritu and Cruise opened to roughly $8 million domestically, one of the softest starts of his career, while Verity cruised to first place. Big-swing originals from A-list stars are getting harder to sell in theaters. Is this on the star, the movie, or the moviegoing habits of 2026?

Should the Padres have trusted Mason Miller with a six-out save in the NLDS?

Miller came in for the eighth, retired four straight, then walked three in the ninth before Jackson Chourio's walk-off single put Milwaukee up 2-0 in the series. Asking your closer for six outs in October is either bold or reckless depending on how it ends. Was this a smart gamble gone wrong, or a mistake you could see coming?

Are the 4-0 Vikings for real if their kicker scored every point on Sunday?

Minnesota beat Miami 15-10 with five Will Reichard field goals and zero touchdowns, and somehow they're still unbeaten. The defense keeps bailing them out, but red-zone offense like that usually catches up with you. Contender, or the luckiest 4-0 start in football?

Should the Eagles move on from Nick Sirianni if the slide continues?

Philly went for it on fourth-and-goal instead of taking points, came up empty, and watched the Rams score twice late to steal a 24-20 win. Going 0-for-12 on third down doesn't help anyone's case. Is this a coaching problem, a quarterback problem, or just a bad afternoon blown out of proportion?

Is Drake Maye a top-five NFL quarterback after out-dueling Josh Allen in Buffalo?

Maye threw for three scores and led the game-winning drive as New England beat the Bills 29-26 at their brand-new stadium. He still turned it over twice, but he flat-out outplayed Allen on the numbers. Is this the moment he joins the elite tier, or are we overreacting to one wild Sunday?
