University Challenge fans were glued to their screens on Monday as the University of East London (UEL) took on the University of Glasgow in the last of this series’ first round challenges.

But it was not the tightly fought competition that had viewers mesmerised - it was UEL contestant Christopher Ducklin’s style that stole the show.

Wearing a psychedelic pink paisley shirt, Civil Engineering student Ducklin immediately won himself thousands of fans on Twitter.

Struggling to tell if one of the University Challenge contestants is dressed as a creepy clown to scare the others

Luckily UEL beat Glasgow 150 points to 135, so Ducklin will be gracing our screens again soon in another (hopefully) fabulous outfit.

Thank goodness.
