If you have watched the current series of University Challenge, you'll be very familiar with Eric Monkman.
The Canadian, who captains the Wolfson College team,
stole the show on his first appearance.
In fact, he has been so ubiquitous that not even the brilliant Bobby Seagull can steal his thunder.
It's very close, though.
There have been certain examples of event television over the years that can't be missed: the X Factor final. The launch of a new series of Big Brother. And, of course, an episode of University Challenge with Monkman taking centre stage.

But wait, are some people fed up with him already?

Oh no, false alarm.

And he's not just a novelty act. Barely a minute passed without Monkman delivering an answer, and it was normally a correct one.

Not always, though.

At one point, it looked like another superhero on the opposing team might get the better of him.

But there was only going to be one winner.

Of course, once the next episode rolls around, we'll have to make do without our new hero. But some people have ideas of how to get around it.
