Christmas University Challenge!
Asking the questions, Jeremy Paxman.
Hello.
With clean-washed hands and faces in a long and eager line,
alumni sit at the table, for this is the hour they shine.
With apologies to the author of Christmas Day In The Workhouse,
we're about to meet two more teams
of recent, not-so-recent and long-distant graduates
prepared to play for the honour of the institution that nurtured them.
With three matches played and four winning teams going through
to the semifinals, we now know that a winning score tonight of
over 150 means a team will definitely return to fight again.
Now, the four from St Catherine's College, Oxford, include the
author of six novels and a memoir - she has recently edited the
ghost stories of Henry James, and is a director of the Hampstead Theatre.
With her, the author of biographies of Harold Pinter and
Peggy Ashcroft, he's also a highly influential figure in the
role he's performed for the past 47 years, for which he's earned an OBE.
Like trying to comprehend the meaning in the entrails of a
chicken, their captain is responsible for turning the
baroque contortions of the Houses of Parliament into
comprehensible and even entertaining reporting.
And their fourth member has won several Emmys,
a Bafta and an RTS Award for his work on numerous blockbuster
productions, including the film Gravity, for which he won an Oscar.
So let's meet the St Catherine's, Oxford, team.
I'm Susie Boyt, I did English at St Catherine's, graduating in the '90s.
I am now a novelist and I write dark books with high spirits.
I'm Michael Billington, I graduated from St Catherine's Society -
as it then was, before it became a college -
in 1961, having read English.
And I've been a theatre critic at the Guardian for some time.
And here's their captain.
I'm Peter Knowles, I graduated in English in 1983,
I'm the control of the TV channel BBC Parliament,
and editor of Today In Parliament on Radio 4.
And I'm Tim Webber, I read physics at St Catherine's,
and graduated in 1987.
I'm now chief creative officer at Framestore and work as a
visual effects supervisor and director for films.
APPLAUSE
Now, playing them is a team representing Peterhouse, Cambridge.
Their first player started his career on the Big Breakfast
and is the long-time writing partner of Sacha Baron Cohen,
working with him on the characters Ali G and Borat.
With him, an archaeologist who was involved in the early days of
Channel 4's Time team, then presented BBC Two's Time Flyers,
and has featured in 11 seasons of Coast.
Their captain was Leader of the Conservative Party and the
Opposition from 2003 to 2005.
He held several Cabinet positions under Margaret Thatcher and
John Major, including that of Home Secretary.
Now an academic, their fourth player is a former head
of the Iran section of the Foreign & Commonwealth Office.
He is a prolific writer, broadcaster and commentator on that country.
Now, let's meet the team from Peterhouse.
I'm Dan Mazer, I read law at Peterhouse,
and I'm now a screenwriter and director.
I'm Mark Horton, I graduated with a PhD in archaeology in 1984,
and have subsequently worked as an archaeologist,
TV presenter and Professor of Archaeology at Bristol University.
And here's their captain.
I'm Michael Howard, I graduated from Peterhouse in 1963,
with degrees in economics and law, and I'm now in the House of Lords.
I'm Michael Axworthy,
I read history at Peterhouse, graduated in 1985,
and I'm the director of the Centre For Persian And Iranian
Studies at the University of Exeter.

Photography When It's Cloudy | Cloudy Day Photography Tips - Duration: 1:42.
What's up guys it's Donovan Wagner and today we're gonna give you some tips on
how to take better photos when it's cloudy outside.
Alright, look at the bright side even when it's cloudy out it's just nature's
softbox. It's actually doing you favors when you're shooting portraits because
there's no shadows under the eyes or chin it's really even like a good
alternative to shooting outside in the winter is to just bring it inside shoot
near a window. It doesn't matter if it's cloudy or sunny, window light is really
nice soft light to use. Okay another tip for when it's winter and it's crappy
outside the weather's not cooperating is just get out there and use the gray
tones and make it kind of moody and edgy. That makes it almost look really
artistic and cool. Lastly just remind yourself that when you're looking at a
photo you want to focus on the subject or the elements within the environment
rather than the landscape in most cases anyways. So make your photos a little bit
more interesting so if you live in a city go downtown and shoot near some big
buildings, reflections use puddles, get creative and just really draw your
viewers eyes to where you want them to look that way the weather doesn't really
matter what it's doing because it's still an interesting photo. In conclusion,
I hope this helps you guys stay motivated through the winter months and
just remember to get out there and shoot no matter what the weather is doing. If

I 1v1'd The BEST Controller Fortnite Player! (Ghost Aydan INSANE 1v1) - Duration: 12:54.
Hey what is going on guys, in this video today you're going to be watching 15 1v1s between
me and ghost aydan.
These were recorded a few weeks ago and we actually did way more than 15 in total.
We sat in creative mode for probably about an hour and a half, and I think we ended up
playing about 45 of them when it was all said and done.
But, this video is pretty much just the first 15 of them and let me tell you, it could not
have been any more even between us.
This first 15 ends 8-7 and throughout the 45 or so we played it was just always back
and forth.
So I think you guys should enjoy this.
Leave a like and let me know if you maybe wanna see more 1v1 videos like this in the
future, and I will catch you guys next time.
