Exeter got a nice easy opener with a full house on "straits" but that was about the highlight of their night as masterclass from UCL, Simon Dennis in particular, paved the way to a win and a very convincing one at that!
Paxman was on form tonight bellowing "You Cannot Confer" at Exeter and chuckling at a couple of wrong answers on a letter question but he did show more surprise and smiles than usual at some of the cracking answers UCL conjured up.
As I mentioned tonight was really the Simon Dennis show. His team mates all made contributions but his buzzing was dominating and he has been the first captain of the series so far to really do so. I think UCL will certainly go far in this sort of form! The range of knowledge Dennis showed was vast and early into the game UCL started to move away running away with at least 10 continuous minutes of the show being entirely on them.
Again tonight saw some cracking questions with a great picture round on roads and a very tough but enjoyable music question on songwriters. But it was all about UCL tonight and no team will want to face them in the next round!
260-85 UCL win!
Congratulations to UCL and I expect we will be seeing a lot more of them in the future.
