    MATCH STATISTICS AND COMMENTS BELOW S53/E33
    Note: individual team member stats are towards the bottom.
    18 rounds (17 rounds completed; the game ended before any bonus questions could be asked in the 18th round)
    26 starter questions (18 answered correctly + 8 additional starter questions on the occasions when neither side answered a starter question correctly)
    51 bonus questions (17 rounds x 3; no bonus questions in the 18th round)
    77 questions in total (26 starter + 51 bonus)
    515 points available in total (26 x10, plus 51 x 5)
    53.4% of the 515 points available were scored ((145 + 130)/515)
    Manchester 28.2% of the total points available (145/515); Starters 9/26; Bonuses 15/24 (62.5%): Penalties x4
    Christ Church 25.2% of the total points available (130/515); Starters 9/26; Bonuses 10/27 (37.0%); Penalties x2
    MANCHESTER 145 POINTS (starters 70 points + bonuses 75 points)
    STARTERS 70 points
    Senehedheera (Capt.) 4/9 less penalties x3 = 25 points
    De Los Reyes-White 1/3 = 10 points
    Kullmann 1/2 less penalties x1 = 5 points
    Grady 3/4 = 30 points
    CHRIST CHURCH, OXFORD 130 POINTS (starters 80 points + bonuses 50 points)
    STARTERS 80 points
    Wotton (Capt.) 7/10 less penalties x1 = 65 points
    Dean 1/3 less penalties x1 = 5 points
    Gorgianeh 0/1 = 0 points
    Lowe 1/2 = 10 points
    It was evidently a match won and lost on the bonus questions, since both teams answered 9 starter questions correctly. Christ Church, interestingly, only got 37% of their bonus questions correct. That aside, Christ Church's Arthur Wotton is one of the most impressive contestants that I've ever seen on the show, and I'm a bit sad that he won't be taking any further part in the series. There appeared to be a moment of anguish for him in the 17th round when he may have sensed that the game was slipping away from him (26:13). Well done, Manchester, on a great win.

    Thanks again, CosmicPumpkin! What a back and forth affair! These two teams were fairly even in ability, although I feel the more "well-rounded" team won. In my guess before the match started, I did pick the winning team, based on this criteria. But it literally came down to the last question. Sad to see the losers go, they were a likeable and enjoyable bunch. Kudos to the winners, who will be a tough out for anyone going forward. My best to both teams, and to each individual.

    Well, that's the end of Manchester's non-penalty run - happy though that my alma mater made it for the first time in a decade to the SF's by the skin of their teeth 😰. Will miss Mr. Wotton - 32 starters over 5 matches is astonishing and may be enough for best of the series, dependent on how the other games go. Christ Church's overall lower bonus rate came back to haunt them - both teams got 9 starters but 15/24 vs 10/27 probably tells the full story of this game.

    Another fantastic match that demonstrates why UC needs its studio audience back.
    Even if it's just made up of seniors who enjoy the experience of watching a TV show being recorded more than they enjoy the actual match, and applaud politely at the gong, it would provide more atmosphere - and be far less repetitive and annoying - than canned applause.
    Some game shows *do* work without a studio audience - Only Connect has never had one, of course (and has never used canned applause either). But UC? Nah.
    Again, studio audiences can't be all *that* expensive, and WWTBAM has gotten *its* studio audience back with no obvious trouble...

I'd hate to be in a team with anyone that does that. The moment someone says "I've seen that" or "I know this" or anything to that effect, it prevents others from thinkning through. Combined with body language, it is a distraction.

      I would surmise that, for US jazz/blues artists before, say, 1950, the students appearing on _University Challenge_ would know only the “big names,” e.g., Ella Fitzgerald (whom they said), Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday (although they missed her here), maybe “Fats” Waller, unless they specifically specialized in or studied that group. In other words, I’d say it’s a generational thing.

      Could they possibly be referring to anybody else?
      The answer they gave was part of his full name and title, and included the essential part of "Tocqueville". It would have been completely ludicrous not to give them the points.
      One wouldn't find Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie listed under the letter N, or Edgar Allan Poe listed under A, but it would not be incorrect to answer "Ngozi Adichie" or "Allan Poe" if asked about them.

      No, they could not be talking about anyone else. Libraries have rules abut these things. These are stored in what are called “name authoritiies.” Cf: authorities.loc.gov/ by way of example. Name authorities tells you that despite the fact that Beethoven’s name was Ludwig van Beethoven, the “van” was honorific and is not used in cataloging. Look for Ludwig van Beethoven on the shelf under “Beethoven.” Alexis de Tocqueville’s last name is Tocqueville. Look for his works under “Tocqueville” and for god’s sake don’t make a fool of your self by referring to him as “de Tocqueville.”

      Boy you are hellbent on looking illiterate. The term “De Tocqueville” is inappropriate in all circumstances. It’s not just ludicrous to give them points it’s the bloody wrong answer. Using this phrase is inappropriate writing at any level especially at the university. But don’t believe me. If you do take a U-level course, trying using it in a paper. At this point I can see you’re either having me on or just proud of your ignorance. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, will in fact be found at your library, at your bookstore, as “Ngozi, Chimamanda Adichie” because, my dear, “Ngozi” isn’t the middle name as you seem to believe, but the last name of her father and “Adichie” the last name of her mother. The way they do in the Spanish world. Don’t believe me because the sign on my desk says “Reference Librarian”. You like look it all up here:"Anglo-American Rules of Cataloging, Revised.” Next, pleaase.

    Not to be pedantic, but at 7:15 the guy gives the answer ‘anechoic’ and Amol replies ‘echo chamber is correct.’ This is nonsense, since anechoic chambers are designed to eliminate echoes - I’m sure Paxo wouldn’t have made this mistake.

      Listen again, Amol responds "anechoic chamber", which was the correct answer for Beranek's Box. No need to keep drudging up Paxman.

      No, you're mixing them up. Hanzi is different to HanJA. Hanzi is the Chinese writing system and a Chinese word. Hanja is the Korean word for their (old) way of using Chinese characters for words borrowed from Chinese in Korean pronunciation. I am Korean and Amol is correct.

      That would be nonsensical -- how would you distinguish it from the regular sin then? I've heard it a "shin" and "shine", but never as "sine". I'm impressed by your confidence though.
