Last night's University Challenge benefitted from the hype surrounding Latin scholar Gail Trimble (at least as tracked by BBC News), with this year's final of the quiz show reaching 5.3m viewers (20.8% share), the show's highest audience since at least 2001.
Trimble, team captain for the victorious Corpus Christi, Oxford, was on parade on Breakfast Time this morning, revealing that she'd had an indirect approach from Nuts magazine for a "tasteful" photoshoot. Charlie Stayt, Breakfast presenter, revealed that he thought Corpus was a women-only college ... and wasn't corrected. And the Manchester Evening News rightly celebrates the efforts of Matthew Yeo and the Manchester University team.
