young ones,hugh laurie,stephen fry Young Ones - University Challenge

In Bambi, the housemates appeared on University Challenge, where they played against Footlights College, Oxbridge, a reference to Footlights drama club at Cambridge University. The Footlights College team was played by show writer Ben Elton and three actors who were once members of the real Cambridge Footlights: Emma Thompson, Hugh Laurie, and Stephen Fry, the last of whom had actually appeared on the quiz show while at Cambridge. The episode title is a reference to the show's presenter, Bamber Gascoigne, impersonated in this episode by Griff Rhys-Jones. A contestant on a real-life edition of University Challenge, who did not know the answer to a question that had been asked, answered "Toxteth O'Grady, USA", as it had been the answer to two questions used in The Young Ones' version.
