I actually know Sam - he actually informed the BBC of when he was graduating before taking part and checked that it was OK. Many people have graduated prior to competing in the final in University Challenge in the past. The whole thing was the BBC caving in to a bit of pressure from other media.
WARNING TO ALL STUDENTS IN THE UK : There is a private tutoring agency in the UK called UNIVERSITY AND ACADEMY TUTORS (UAT) Ltd, based at Jesson House, Tower Street, Coventry, CV1 1JN, UK. The owner of this company is called Dr. Vincent McKee. McKee has been outed as a FRAUDSTER by Sky News on TWO occasions, on 12 Jan 2011 and again in March 2011. As a result, McKee has changed his name to DR. PATRICK KELLY. DO NOT give UAT your credit or debit card details because YOUR MONEY WILL BE STOLEN.
@Satarack why should it? Let's presume they found this out at the start, this would demoralise the team and cause nervousness which would impact their performance - it's basically a big deal. Don't look at it from the final point of view.
its not like he changed the game was it ? it was all trimble
