The 800 Year Quiz has now concluded, with the Department for Pure Maths and Mathematical Statistics declared the brainiest university department. Many thanks to all the teams who took part and the spectators who came to support them and us. If you missed the semi-finals or final you can download mp3s of them by right-clicking on the titles below and selecting "Save Link As". Unfortunately the unexpectadly high number of specators means that the audience aplause somewhat overloads the microphones creating an annoying crackling on the recordings- this will be removed once QuizSoc have finished our exams and have time to restore them!

Semi Final- Physics Vs DPMMS Introduced and hosted by Clive Anderson, announcer Paul Beecher
Semi Final- History Vs University Library Introduced and hosted by Clive Anderson, announcer Joshua Karton
Final- History Vs DPMMS Introduced and hosted by Clive Anderson, announcer Simon Spiro and closing words by Paul Beecher and Pro-Vice Chancellor for Education, Professor John Rallison

Also included for your enjoyment is this clip from BBC Radio Cambridgeshire in which the organisers are interviewed about the final: BBC Interview
