Tonight, 8 p.m. on BBC2, University Challenge - drum roll - representing the University of Manchester we have masquerading as a "first year undergraduate reading Biochemistry", yes it's a Llama!

Bit pointless wishing Doublemm luck as the show was recorded months ago but we still don't know what happened... Go Mike!

Doublemm (Peanut) always does his best.

Plus, he is a Llama.

No contest! He is a winner!

Thanks for letting us know, Flopsy. I always watch this anyway but it will be with added interest now.

Congrats. I rarely watch, but I actually knew a few of the answers this time. Must be interesting to play

I LOVE University Challenge...watch it every week here in the colonies. I'll be glued to the old laptop tonight when the quizzes are done and the kids are in bed. Thanks Flopsy! And good luck Mike!

Thanks for the support . It was fun, but nerve-wracking.

You did well, Mike. Buzzing in for the first starter was brave. I think I'd be paralyzed by fear.

Hi all, my second round match will be shown on 21st November, BBC2 8pm.

University Challenge tonight! Watch the llama star - or sink into oblivion, we're not quite sure yet which it will be...

I'm sure he'll be a star, even if his team loses.

He got a few marriage offers via Twitter after his performance last time. I think that made him sweat more than the programme.

Not that I copied them on to the Llamas' messageboard at all... would I do that?

Are you sure the marriage offers weren't from you? Well done, Mike - another stellar performance.

I'm not going to marry anyone who buzzes in on a question about myxomatosis!

I'm sure you were his inspiration for that answer, Flopsy.

LOL, you may be right.

Congratulations again to Mike and Manchester.

I watched them all but only found this today- are there any replays about so I can put a face to the name? I'd have loved to go on myself, but I was at a polytechnic and although they've been on a few times since they became a university it was long after I'd been and gone. It would almost be worth doing another course now just for a chance as I've been playing along with my mother for years and can both keep up although it took me many quizzes playing here to catch her up.

We did have a team member on Mastermind on Friday as well who I luckily did recognise but came a bit late to this one

It's on the BBC website, Satguru, so you should be able to catch up with it.

Alas the BBC doesn't allow we colonials to watch anything. I suppose your poor cousins in the Antipodes will be able to see it on youtube perchance? *tugs forelock*

Here's the epidsode

If you need a proxy server to watch it there are plenty of safe ones to choose from.

I'm sending you a note Tizzabelle - several non-UK Llamas have been able to watch via a proxy so the same method should work for you. If anyone else wants to know how, just let me know.

PS It's not illegal!

Brilliant! I can now watch the English Auntie Well done Manchester! I felt so ignorant for most of it but I take consolation in knowing the Shakespearean quote that even Oxford didn't know. One does have to take solace in small victories

Tonight Manchester's team bus tries to run over University College London...

Let's hope there are no questions about rabbits tonight - no Fatal Attraction, or Mr McGregor to frighten our very own bunny rabbit.

And here we go again... tonight, ladies and gents, at 8.00 p.m. on BBC2, the jumper-wearing Mancunians face the Geordies in what is a deciding match, roll up, roll up (and I don't mean Mike the Llama's collar) (or a crafty smoke behind the bikeshed - English is such a wonderful language, why do things have so many meanings?). In the current round, the teams play best of three and both Manchester and Newcastle have each lost one game already so whoever loses tonight is on the bus home. Which as the programme is recorded in Manchester wouldn't be far for some of them.

I'm beginning to feel myxomatosis creeping up on me but I should be okay, they can't ask the same question twice.

Can they?
