Time for the main event, #UniversityChallenge.

Big welcome to newcomers, the Royal College of Art. Wonderful to welcome a new institution to the series.

And of course, always good to have UCL, especially with their Jeremy Bentham mascot.

@amolrajan looking sharp as always

Cricket People will enjoy & possibly devour this. Not being any kind of historian, I nearly drifted. But it’s wise, warm & very readable. The author knows stuff… & *understands*. Respect.

What do I enjoy about #UniversityChallenge? 🤝

Watching the teams shake hands at the end of the quiz.

It says a lot about the competitive but collaborative and respectful atmosphere that @amolrajan has created on the show.

You can compete fiercely AND still celebrate the other team. 👏🧠

Time for the main show, #UniversityChallenge.

Who's ready for the Midlands quiz derby?

Birmingham V Leicester

We are ready @amolrajan

@amolrajan was only sorry he hadn’t got to meet the revered genius that was Liddle in person. Is that the same Amol who interviewed @GarethSouthgate about “lack of positive role models” for boys?

#AmolRajan: “Kevan Jones, Lord Beamish …”

Beamish speaking first. I can’t wait for Jones to contradict 😇

If the correct form of address is important, why deliberately use the wrong one?

“Is it worth it if most boats rise, while a few suffer?”

#AmolRajan making a strong case for private education. Is that the collective view of the #BBC #R4Today team and, if so, are they the best people to present a show where 93% of listeners went to state schools?

It must have come as quite a shock to #AmolRajan on #R4Today to find out, from #SeanFarrington, that he has been pronouncing his own surname wrong for years.

Who are these teenagers who tell you they wish they’d never discovered social media, #AmolRajan?

Really enjoying the new series of University Challenge. My guess is that Imperial goes far. Great team, but I nearly spilled my drink when you put a definite article in front of Magna Carta

. Couldn’t you fix that in pos…

“Some people are playing football, so we are asking a rower about a coordinated dance move”

Obviously #AmolRajan tries to make it sound hilarious, and relevant.

#NovoNordisk claim their goal is to defeat obesity. #wegovy doesn't defeat obesity, The sustainable, affordable choice is to prevent obesity. Not costly, lifelong drug addiction. #r4today #amolrajan

Wow!

What a fantastic learning experience on #R4Today!

A deep and meaningful part of #Congolese culture since 2015, coincidentally sharing its name with a US dance craze from slightly earlier.

#Dance on the #radio, and #AmolRajan gushing about how wonderful it is.

FFS 🤦‍♂️

“Never work with children or animals”

#AmolRajan proves the wisdom by interviewing an entire family with a shared lack of anything interesting to say, and forces hysterical laughter to cover the vacuity.

If you're talking about #AI sovereignty on #R4Today, a good starting point might be to have guests with sufficient bandwidth on their dial-in so that it doesnt sound as though they're calling in whilst drowning at the bottom of a well? #AmolRajan

“Why would #devolution drive growth, given that it hasn’t in #Scotland or #Wales?”

Where is your evidence, #AmolRajan?

Where would those places be without devolution?

When both derive much of their income from Westminster, how much is investment for growth even within their power?

Can't wait for #amolrajan to leave #r4today. When he talks about Trump's 'genius' you know he's lost the plot
June 24, 2026 at 8:31 AM
40 years I’ve listened to the #bbcr4Today as soon as #chrismason comes on I can’t bear it - the radio is off. And as for #amolrajan asking daft questions like who is running the country today - well if the media would give Starmer a chance he’s actually getting on with it !

Would welcome seeing and hearing less of him. I stopped watching University Challenge, and find his ‘I know everything you are talking about’ interviews incredibly annoying. With his brain the size of a planet perhaps he could share it solely, and upon, another planet. #amolrajan

#AmolRajan: “Those of you who dread Thought For The Day in case it is soporific drone Rhidian Brook probably thought you’d escaped him today, but you know we save the 8:55 slot for a moment of joyful fun …”

#BBCNews #R4Today

I only heard the #MichaelMorpurgo interview over the noise of my shower, but did he say he wants to provide free child labour to farmers because #Covid was so beneficial to young people?

Is #AmolRajan incapable of critical analysis?

I hope I misheard.
