Hello. 14 teams of distinguished alumni | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
have eased us gently into the New Year | 0:00:31 | 0:00:34 | |
by entertaining us with what they know | 0:00:34 | 0:00:35 | |
and, occasionally, with what they don't | 0:00:35 | 0:00:38 | |
while defending the honour of the institution that nurtured them. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:41 | |
Now only the best two teams remain, | 0:00:41 | 0:00:44 | |
and in a little under half an hour, | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
one of them will become series champions | 0:00:46 | 0:00:49 | |
and then face the toughest test of all - | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
trying not to look smug as they shake hands with the losers. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
There is no cash prize, there is no foreign holiday - | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
in fact, there isn't even a trophy. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
Now, the team from the University of Sheffield arrived here | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
by beating Aberdeen University in round one. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
In round two, they met Manchester University | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
and were trailing until the halfway mark | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
when they pulled themselves into the lead and stayed there | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
giving themselves an impressive combined score of 345. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:16 | |

Their combined score is 415. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
No change to their line-up either. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
They're fielding a gardening correspondent and classicist, | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
a neuroscientist, a documentary maker | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
