0:00:55 > 0:00:59and East London University in round two.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Their first quarterfinal, though, was a less happy experience when,

0:01:47 > 0:01:50Round two was even easier for them when they sent
0:01:50 > 0:01:55Oriel College, Oxford home by a margin of 265 points to 70.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58But then 70 was all they could muster when they were defeated

0:05:46 > 0:05:48Umberto Eco as the best in English,

0:07:18 > 0:07:22and an Austrian physicist who gives his surname
0:07:22 > 0:07:26to a number measuring speed relative to the speed of sound?
0:07:26 > 0:07:30Is that Mach? But it's Ernst Mach and it must be Max Ernst.
0:07:30 > 0:07:31Yeah.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33Ernst.

0:08:12 > 0:08:13Is it?
0:08:13 > 0:08:15Near Inverness.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51that the universe owes its existence to God,
0:09:51 > 0:09:55who was the first of the so-called Milesian school of philosophers?
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Well, Thales is of Miletus.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12that everything in the universe can be understood in terms of
0:10:12 > 0:10:14a single substance?
0:10:14 > 0:10:17In the case of Thales, that substance was water.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19- Is that going to be monism?- Yeah.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21- Monism.- Correct.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26that Earth was supported by a sea of water,

0:10:30 > 0:10:33- Pupil of Thales...?- Democritus?
0:10:33 > 0:10:35I was thinking of Heraclitus.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39- But it might be Zeno as well. - You're more educated in it than me.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41It could be Democritus.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44- Democritus? - Come on, let's have it, please.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47- Democritus. - No, it's Anaximander.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51Ten points for this. The Penguin boardwalk and

0:11:13 > 0:11:15I need two answers in each case.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17First, maltose?
0:11:17 > 0:11:19That's glucose and sucrose.
0:11:19 > 0:11:21Yes, I think so.
0:11:21 > 0:11:22Glucose and sucrose.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25- No, it's glucose and glucose. - Oh, yeah...
0:11:25 > 0:11:26Secondly, lactose?

0:11:30 > 0:11:32Glucose, galactose.

0:11:40 > 0:11:42They are very similar, these things.
0:11:42 > 0:11:43They are!
0:11:43 > 0:11:45Fructose and gluctose.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47No, clearly it's just a slip of the tongue,
0:11:47 > 0:11:49but it is glucose and fructose.
0:11:49 > 0:11:50So I can't give you the point.
0:11:50 > 0:11:54Another starter question - the capital of the department of
0:11:54 > 0:11:58Haute-Vienne, which French city was particularly associated with the
0:11:58 > 0:12:02production of enamel from the Middle Ages, and since the 18th century,
0:12:02 > 0:12:05has been a major centre for the manufacture of porcelain?
0:12:07 > 0:12:08Lyon?
0:12:08 > 0:12:11No, anyone want to buzz from Bristol?
0:12:13 > 0:12:14Avignon?
0:12:14 > 0:12:16No, it's Limoges. Ten points for this.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22to be associated with personality traits

0:12:41 > 0:12:44APPLAUSE
0:12:44 > 0:12:47You get a set of bonuses, Bristol, on darts.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49Firstly, for five,
0:12:49 > 0:12:52there are four possible three-dart checkouts for 158.
0:12:52 > 0:12:53Give any one of them.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56So it needs to be two singles and a double scored to check out.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00So, two singles and a double that add up to 158.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03Oh, no, it could be trebles as well.
0:13:03 > 0:13:08So you could get treble 20, 120, and then you've got 38 left to go,
0:13:08 > 0:13:11so 12 and double...
0:13:11 > 0:13:13six, would that be it? No.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16120 plus...
