  • From January 13th 2014's University Challenge. Trinity College Cambridge took on Manchester University and Trinity's captain seems to find the questions a little on the easy side.

    Craziest thing is, he buzzed before the word “for”.
    Paxman could have easily said something completely different, like “Who held the position of Prime Minister of the United Kingdom during the Battle of Tannenberg”.
    Only the word “for” gives a bit of a clue that “the longest” could follow.

Before I knew this, while watching the 2021 tournament I did think that he seemed somewhat slower off the mark than he usually is, despite the fact that he's also now 71. I'm glad he's still there asking the questions though, and long may that continue.
