This episode coming from the University of Leicester, 鈥淭he 3rd Degree鈥� is a funny, upbeat and brainy quiz show.

The Specialist Subjects this week are French, Genetics and Criminology so we鈥檒l meet a five-legged sheep, some Italian cheekbones and the one thing Hannibal Lecter really shouldn鈥檛 eat, plus there鈥檒l be tips on how to tell your Larkin from your Lineker.

The show is recorded on location at a different University each week, and pits three Undergraduates against three of their Professors in this fresh take on an academic quiz. The General Knowledge rounds include a quickfire bell-and-buzzer finale and the 鈥楬ighbrow & Lowbrow鈥� round cunningly devised to test not only the students鈥� knowledge of history, art, literature and politics, but also their Professors鈥� awareness of TV, music and sport. Meanwhile there are the three Specialist Subject rounds, in which students take on their Professors in their own subjects, and where we find out whether the students have actually been awake during lectures...

In this series, the show goes to Leicester, St Andrews, Loughborough, Falmouth, the University of East Anglia and Robinson College, Cambridge.
