Update: 2026-01-02
Description
University Challenges Christmas special on BBC Two was filled with laughter and surprises. Durham University alumni, led by former Green Party co-leader Carla Denyer, made a hilarious mistake, guessing Minsk as a Russian city when its actually the capital of Belarus. Despite the blunder, they won the semi-final against Trinity College Cambridge. Tonight, they face Keble College Oxford in the final, giving Denyer a chance to redeem herself after her engineering days at Durham and political rise as Bristol Centrals MP.
