(BBC Universally Challenged Xmas Spesh slips 3 blatant "unprovoked Russian/Soviet aggression" Q's into the mix. Precise video time-points follow..)
But it's insidiously done by asking THREE highly selective negative-spin smear-questions about Russia/USSR, WWII and 1939.
Now - of all the questions they could have asked about Russian / Soviet military actions/from 1939 to 1945 - why I wonder(I'm so,er, puzzled..) would Universally Challenged's real question-masters and Paxman choose to ask about Soviet Russia's "unprovoked aggression" against....Finland in 1939 ??!
No questions about 15+ million (Soviet) Russians dying and about Soviet Russia ultimately winning the wider war for us against Nazi Germany or at what enormous cost. The death and injury toll (as even many plebeian non-graduates know) massively dwarfed the number of US-UK and Allied forces deaths/casualties.
Jump to 16'10" (until 17'10") for the start of this barely-disguised BBC/Deep State 3-question assault on,er, unprovoked, aggressive Russia.
Jump to 16'58" for the final assault and insult(to the intelligence).
The series is also broadcast by BBC America - so the question-masters will have pleasured and pleased their US puppet-masters no end. Yet again.
Takeaway: - That's right folks - highly intelligent (Oxbridge) graduates or "alumni" obviously all agree when it comes to unprovoked Russian aggression - then as now: so you obviously should too, you non-alumni pleb viewers !
Apart from that - this episode really exposes the geographical and other areas of ignorance or amnesia of one of the "oldie" teams in particular. Almost embarrassing.
For once I almost got as many questions right in total as the losing team. I have to admit I'm an almost life-long fan of Universally Challenged - mostly for all the right "wrong reasons".
I especially love to see how the "oldie" contestants who failed to graduate craftily try to hide the fact that they either dropped out or failed to graduate when they introduce themselves - before the Q&A proper kicks off - with carefully rehearsed phrases such as "I studied Philosophy at Balliol in the 1990's" - whilst actual graduates always clearly and proudly state that: "I graduated with a degree in blahblah in 1987, 2006" - or whenever.
I'm still trying to establish if Balliol "alumnus" Boris Johnson actually graduated. His Wikipedia pages ambiguously only state that "he studied Classics" not "he graduated". What a pity that he wasn't part of this Balliol team - to answer that and many other tricky questions.
