    Bamber Gascoigne has died at the age of 87

    He presented University Challenge for 25 years (1962 - 1987)

    R.I.P. to a true legend :(

    @MISTY4ME


    That's very sad, though I suppose he was fairly ancient.

    A wonderfully intelligent chap, & beautifully bred.

    Bamber Gasworks as he was known in our house, I think the questions were a lot harder back then.

    He didn't do too bad as @HAYSIE had already killed him off in 2021...

    I have to admit that some of my posts on this thread have been unreliable.
    Killing off people that arent yet dead, as well as those that have been dead for many years.
    However, I deny all knowledge of killing off Bamber Gascoigne prematurely.

    You have a very good filing system.

    No filing system involved as when I saw Bamber Gascoigne's name I thought he's already dead,as I remembered a post about him (it's weird what stays in your head). Searched the forum for Bamber and up came your thread entitled 'Sore Loser' which I included in my original post. As the saying goes 'Once you post something online it's there for ever' :)

    I remember as a teen erupting into uncontrolable hysteria when Bamber said

    "Queens I can give it, can you take it"

    My parents who didn't get it then made me explain.

    Old people eh !

    Wow, big character, decent player at amatuer level and good mind coach. Also showed that not all bouncers are dumb muscle.

    R.I.P. Steve.
