I don't know whether I should really admit this - but I am a big fan of University Challenge! I never thought i'd be sat at the edge of my sat chewing my nails but tonights final was a blinder - yes I really did just say that.


Normally myself and batman battle it out to see who can get the most (if any) answers correct and generally enjoy Jeremy Paxman not giving a damn.


Anybody else do the same or similar with other shows - or for that matter have any guilty pleasure shows?

Unfortunately that was before my time - being of the dumbed down 'not real qualification' era....


I fall totally flat on classical music and opera, its normally the obscure science questions I get right much to the mistiication of the other half


5 seems like quite a good aim - although if you have a degree in classics or ancient history or ever went to public boarding school you have no excuse for not getting them al right


Always wondered how many kids on there come from state backgrounds lol

    • Regarding the Ring doorbell have a look at the information on the Information Commissioner's website: https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/home-cctv-systems/ There has also been at least one legal case regarding Ring doorbell and cctv cameras, Fairhurst v Woodard, link to a law firm article on the case: https://www.nelsonslaw.co.uk/ring-data-protection/ Regarding noise and shed issues, can you speak to someone in the Southwark Leaseholders' Team?
    • In answer to your question Pugwash, the variety of foods that they offer both in canned goods and fresh. i personally no longer am a Sainsbury customer after years - feel that the quality of both their fruit, veg and fresh products ie meat, chicken, fish is not of a quality that they use to be. Agree with Sue that Co- Op does not make for a pleasant shopping experience.  On the subject of Waitrose not coming to ED - one can only assume that market research has been done by the company which makes it a non starter which, when you think about it is strange as all the big contenders are here.. Perhaps the powers to be have never heard of ED!! Maybe a Lidl or Aldi will rear their heads but somehow can’t see it as space is way to small. Really is strange that Waitrose is a non arrival - never ceases to amaze me how many eateries are in Lordship Lane alone and the majority all survive.  
    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
