‘I hope you don’t expect us to win’: rival Irish University Challenge captains join forces for a fiendish pub quiz

I’ve never been great at pub quizzes. So the opportunity to team up with two of Ireland’s best and brightest minds promised some vindication – even if only as part of a team. On a personal level, a friend had suggested beforehand that the experience had the potential to be humiliating. I suggested ‘humbling’ was perhaps a better word. A win is a win, after all.
