Gifted

Do the researchers looking for guests on the alumni editions of University Challenge have a special 'be kind to them at Christmas' category ?

Mark Urban, axed from Newsnight, is there this year, representing the LSE. Spencer Kelly, who's techie show on the News Channel, Click, has been cancelled, and he's been selected in the Churchill College, Cambridge team. Andrew Harding, currently the BBC's Paris Correspondent, might be a bit worried about his inclusion for Emmanuel, Cambridge. Sophia Smith Galer worked for the BBC from 2017 to 2021, and now describes herself as a freelance journalist and content creator; she's representing Durham. Danny Robins, still hosting the podcast series Uncanny, plays for Bristol. Lauren Layfield, one-time straight person to Hacker on CBBC, is still in and out of Radio 1 podcasts, and represents Leeds Trinity, alongside Harpz Kaur, who left the BBC Asian Network in 2022, after seven years.
