With four minutes to go in the semi-final of University Challenge, we were 45 points behind, and it looked like the dream might be over. Could we overturn the deficit?

  • Definitely, a few seconds more and it could all have been different. I could imagine that Mills might have known the answer to the question Paxman had just started. I'll never forget the relief I felt when the gong went! Yeah, Mills was very unhappy - note that he doesn't say 'goodbye' at the end...

  • Well done to you and your team, Roger what a comeback! That question about explosives that you buzzed in on - you may not have got it right, but if you hadn't buzzed in, those few extra seconds might have given Manchester a chance to answer that final starter question. Terrific game!

  • It was the 2004/05 university challenge where Corpus beat UCL in the final.

  • Fair play to you and your team Roger. That had to be pretty much the narrowest of narrow margins - cause, of course, had it gone on just a few seconds longer... I read on your site that Mills didn't take such a defeat very well.
