Blackie Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Just watching this on BBC2 about past University challenge winners. They are all odd to say the least and a large amount of them are very lonely. Sad really, one woman has an IQ of 160 odd and lives in a proper pig sty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackie Posted November 6, 2009 Author Share Posted November 6, 2009 So no one saw this? Is it because it had "university challenge" in the title? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbm Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I saw it Al I agree, sometimes these academics can seem quite strange, almost autistic in a sense. Granted they have an intellectual brain the size of a planet, but social skills or confidence seem to be lacking. Not forgetting some incredible displays of hair styling and all round hair behaviour.

merckx Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 one woman has an IQ of 160 odd and lives in a proper pig sty I saw the programme, her house was a right mess. The bloke that visited his mothers house for tea and a massive plate of sandwiches was very odd, his teeth were rotten. Some really clever people though.

The whole thing left me a little bit sad really, all the long pauses after they spoke were designed to show there lonelyness i think. When he was searching himself on google that was a little pathetic when he couldent find himself (Need to have seen it to understand) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
