If you know the result please don't spoil it, hence I haven't read the Mail thread further down.

Two 'love them or hate them' characters on either team. Very clever, very oddly animate and both very impressive.
One from NYC (Brandon) the other of Asian origin (Wang) and there's a lot of team dynamics that centre purely on these two.

Wang is more of a team player and the more likeable personality nevertheless they are both unbelievably knowledgeable
Report Jack Hacksaw April 20, 2020 3:18 PM BST
Wang is very distracting to his team mates.  I'd tell him to STFU unless he has anything helpful to say.

Brandon either knows it or lets someone else have a crack.

I've probably let these two get under my skin too much but I won't be watching. Without a doubt the most irritaing pr***ks in the history of the programme - can't even do sound only as their voices are just as bad as the horrible arm waving (Wang) and posturing (Blackwell - I refuse to call him by his first name which he clearly insists on, just be contrary - yet another sign of his insufferable affection and arrogance).

Seems Blackwell isn't his real name, anyway!

What happened to the Seagull?

Very tough questions tonight I thought. Only knew a few answers less than 6! Good show though.
Report lovegod April 21, 2020 7:51 AM BST
Wang was getting on my nerves not letting Paxman finish the question before answering.

Brandon seemed less intense and even smiled a couple of times. If he doesn't know the answer he says so and lets his teammates sort it out.

As said above Rich was outstanding but all of Imperial contributed to starter and bonus questions.

Imperial different class
Report Whisperingdeath April 21, 2020 7:58 AM BST
It was a great team effort too . Rich was Imperious as pointed out but another kid soothed the nerves early on with starters.

You can't believe how much stuff is in their heads already, and so young. Presentation looked very awkward, like a special needs lunch queue.

Should have been awarded in the studio.  Maybe Paxo got another days pay, though.
