University of Dundee

Episode 3 of 6

Steve Punt hosts the battle of wits as students from the University of Dundee take on their professors. From July 2018.

Steve Punt's funny and dynamic academic quiz show comes from the University of Dundee.

Three Undergraduates take on three of their Professors.

Specialist subjects include Geography, Art and Physics.

Questions ranging from Rachel Whiteread and R枚ntgen Rays to the Shiba Inu from the meme and Gnasher from The Beano.

Recorded on location at a different University each week, the rounds vary between Specialist Subjects and General Knowledge, plus quickfire bell-and-buzzer rounds.

The Highbrow and Lowbrow round is cunningly devised to test not only the students' knowledge of current affairs, history, languages and science, but also their Professors' awareness of TV, sport, and quite possibly Justin Bieber.

In addition, the Head-to-Head rounds see students take on their Professors in their own subjects, offering plenty of scope for mild embarrassment on both sides.

Producer: David Tyler
