The Open University (OU) won the 1999 series with a team whose age averaged 46.
Do I get an extra point for that one?

rules
on the starter for 10. first team member to answer is accepted. 30 seconds to answer
supplementary questions. first answer accepted, but can be overridden by the captain. 30 seconds to answer.
remember, Bamber (thats me) has to wait 30 secs before reposting, so all prompts etc will mean 'its gonna happen 30 secs from now'
I will start a new thread 'Fingers on the Buzzers' a few minutes before 13:00
audience answers will be ignored (by me anyway)
