Tune in to BBC Two tonight to cheer on the Southampton team who are through to the quarter-finals of University Challenge after beating Christ’s College, Cambridge in the second round of the competition.
PGRs Dom Belcher, Ethan Lyon, Magda Steele and Elliot Miles, with the support of their trusty walrus mascot, helped Southampton beat Christ’s College by 175 points to 90 in the second round of the competition.
Listen to their interview with Pat Sissons on Radio Solent.

The last time we were on University challenge was in the 2019/2020 series but sadly we were knocked out.
Earlier this month, we took a trip down memory lane and spoke to alumna and former contestant Patricia Goggin, who is now Head of the Biomedical Imaging Unit in the Faculty of Medicine.
Tonight will be the first of at least two quarter-finals and if they win they go through to the semifinals and, of course, if they win that, they’re in the final!
Make sure you also keep one eye on Professor Jim Anderson’s Twitter feed @multijimbo as he will be doing a live Haiku as the programme airs.
You can join the conversation with #universitychallenge and #WeAreUoS.
You can tune in to University Challenge tonight at 8.30pm on BBC Two to see how the Southampton team get on.
