    Surprised they could raise a team due to covid (or because they only have 4 students in the whole uni)

    It's Z list celebrity alumni in a special series, not current students.

    It definitely lulls you in to a false sense of security when you answer quite a few on the celebrity version Then back to not even understanding most of the questions when the proper version starts again.

    I'm just surprised that the alumni team didn't include that intellectual giant, former member of Johnson's Cabinet, former Chief Whip and former Secretary of State for Education - the Right Hon Gavin Williamson CBE who has a BSc (Hons) in Social Sciences from Bradford Uni!

    OK, maybe I'm not surprised. ;)

    I got the Paul Nicholas one yesterday, good for 9 points, and a couple of the years. Apart from that, nadda.

    I’m very much a high teens to low 20’s on a normal pop master but so far out of my depth with this stuff.Got sly fox for 1 point and a pure guess for Help by the Beatles but nothing else.
