    I attended the final of the first series of UC (1962-63), in which the University of Leicester defeated Balliol College, Oxford. I met Bamber Gascoigne 55 years later when he spoke at a public meeting in Leatherhead about inheriting the nearby West Horsley estate where he helped to found a brand new opera house in the grounds. A charming and much accomplished man.

    The first question shown is on the layout of the universe. My only purchase of an IBC document was the world-map correctly oriented; on the reverse the explanation of the 'inside-out universe' containing a singularity. Map lost years ago when lent to a work colleague from the other hemisphere, but in discussions on astronomy I sometimes refer back to that model of the universe, which I lost. I wish everything I've bought gave me as much pleasure and opportunity for contemplation as that wall-poster.

    Has anybody ever seen the American show this was based on? The original run of "College Bowl" aired from 1959 to 1970, though it predates that by a few years on radio. It's since had a few shorter runs here and there, with the most recent version airing for a couple of seasons by former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning.
