They are now through to the semi-final, which will be held on Monday Feb 18 and will be facing Christ Church Oxford which could be a bit dodgy statistically, as Christ Church is one of Oxford's largest. It gives me a great buzz to see someone introducing themselves with the words "and I am reading for a doctorate in translation studies", as it also does to see a peer getting so many answers right. Tune in and donate some spiritual support! BBC 2 at 20:00, right after the other programme on ITV that has made Manchester famous. Chris Irwin ▲ Collapse | | | Bravo Andrew! | Jan 22, 2008 |
I won't be able to see the show, but I wanted to give my support from Italy and tell Andrew: 'Bravo! Sei tutti noi! Fagliela sudare'

Thanks for sharing Textklick (sorry, forgot your real name).

Don't have a TV, I'm afraid, but any chance someone - besides the station - is taping AR's moments for posterity? Best wishes and good luck, Terry | | |
Thanks for letting us know - As a Manchester resident I will definitely be tuning in to watch them in the next round!! | |
