Is it just me who thinks that Monkman, the captain of the Wolfson college, Cambridge, team is the best thing on TV?

At least the oxford tossers were made to go to Cambridge to get the trophy! Ha!

I thought Balliol thoroughly deserved the win. I love the faces their captain pulls.

Gracious in defeat, good old Monkman!

I would ruin Pope, I have decided. Especially now I've seen him standing up.

Surely we have not seen the last of Monkman. Bobby Seagull is in talks to present a TV show on maths, Monkman could be the BBC's new economics correspondent!

Monkman and Bobby Seagull are apparently now good friends... awwwww.

Was supporting Monkman & crew all the way but all eight were smiling so nicely at the end when they got the trophy.

Really enjoyed this series!

I must say, all eight finalists appear to be thoroughly good eggs.

I guess I'm the only person who found Goldman to be annoyingly smug and sneery?

And I hated the way he interrupted Paxman (until it got nearer to the end and they were in front and playing for time).

Maybe he was just nervous.... but I'm not convinced!

He was a bit smug & gloaty when he got an answer right but I put it down to his being the underdog against the nation's favourite, Monkman.
