University Challenge returns tomorrow

A quick reminder that the new series of University Challenge begins tomorrow at 8pm. Will be great to have the show back after all these weeks. It's had a much longer break than in recent years. Let's hope it will be just as good as it has been in recent times.

First match is between the Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, who are newcomers to the show, and York University, who reached the Grand Final two series ago, but went out in the first round last series. Hopefully a good match to begin the series.

Also, I wonder if the set will be any different; it's been (pretty much) the same for a long time now, so maybe it's time for a redesign. We'll have to wait and see.

  1. Hi

    My university team and I appear on this series of UC so I will look forward to reading your blog posts about our matches ;)

    We were told that this is the last series they were filming in Granada before moving to MediaCity in Salford, so from the next series they'll have a new set.

  2. Hi Welshguy

    Thank you for posting! I look forward to watching you and your team play, and best of (hypothetical) luck!

    Thanks for the information about the set as well. Will be interesting to see if they rebuild the current one, or make a whole new one altogether.

    Cheers,
    Jack
