some amazing Jews.

My people thank you.

- Here you go, squire.

- Don't waste any time, do you, Barry?

Nice work, Barry.

Was there any change?

Sorry.

Well, nice talking to you, Barry.

Actually, it's Brian.

- But he just called you Barry.

- Yeah, he did.

What, you didn't correct him?

I'm sorry, I didn't get your name.

Rebecca. Rebecca Epstein.

Rebecca Epstein.

That's a Jewish name, isn't it?

Shalom, Brian.

Right, absolutely.

Bring it on!

I'm sorry.

Oh, excuse me. What's the hurry?

- Rebecca.

- Right.

Come to our demonstration.

Can't stop. I've got an important meeting.

Oh, right. More important

than the struggle against apartheid?

Listen, I'm really, really interested in this.

It's just that I'm late.

Yeah, I know.

Contemporary Jewish studies.

Oh, sorry.

Halt.

- Hi, I'm here for the...

- Fingers on buzzers, first question.

- What's that in your hand?

- It's a poster.

And why is it in your hand

rather than on the wall

where everyone can see it?

Never mind. Fill this in, will you?

- Anyone else waiting out there?

- I don't think so. No.

Really? Bugger.

- Subject?

- English literature.

But I'm pretty good on sciences.

Newton's Third Law of Motion?

Reaction is equal and opposite to action.

Take a seat, please.

Anywhere?

Right. Let's get started then, shall we?

I'm sorry there aren't more of us.

It seems that vandals

have been tearing down the posters.

I'm Patrick Watts from Ashton-under-Lyne.

I'm reading mechanical engineering.

Some of you may recognise me

from last year's TV tournament.

Once again I'll be captaining

this year's team.

- Why?

- Sorry?

If we lost last year,

why are you still the captain?

Well, because I'm a post-grad

and I've been captain for the last three years.

Yeah, we've lost for the last three years.

Look, let's just crack on, shall we?

In order to qualify, you'll need to answer

And the top three scores

join me, the captain, in this year's team.

I have some lively little questions in there,

so I think you're in for a pretty good time.

But it is against the clock.

So, people, if you're ready.

Let's quiz!

Hi.

- Sorry, I'm late.

- That's fine.

- Can I borrow this?

- Of course you can.

Thank you.

Okay, concentrate. Question six.

Question six is...

Why's she smiling at me?

That's not question six. Concentrate.

Must concentrate.

Look at the paper. Look at the paper.

Don't look at her.

Don't look at her legs,

or the curve of her neck.

Just concentrate. Right. Question sex...

Six. Six.

Hey, handsome.

Would you mind giving me

the answers to three and five?

Thanks.

Cheating.

She wants me to cheat. I can't do that.

With pleasure.
