There's nothing quite like a comeback to the blood flowing, this was was a hell of an example of such a thing! We're looking forward to seeing what Queen's Belfast can achieve in the next round but for now we discuss adorable birds on flags, get sidetracked on both the importance of native literature and the racy side of 50's music, and of course talk about the most important aspect of Univesity Challenge: who was the best dressed.

We're trucking on through with these episodes, aren't we? This time we have two teams that have been in the completion previously a combined six times since the start of the Paxman era.

The end is in sight, and favourites Imperial have cemented a place for themselves in the final despite the best attempts of Emmanuel.

Join us as we discuss this crazy match, as well as learning in real-time what the 'kitchen-sink' movie genre is about and try to wrap our heads around that picture round.
