A POPULAR BBC Radio 4 quiz show featuring University of Cumbria students competing against their lecturers airs next week. Three students are going head to head against a trio of academics from their specialist areas in the latest episode of The 3rd Degree, which will be broadcast to the nation on Monday 7 June. Due to the pandemic, the heat was recorded remotely in April with a virtual audience of students, academics, friends and family watching. Ella Farley, Barney Price and Lauren Toyne make up the student team. Barney is a forestry student, Ella is studying marine and freshwater conservation, and Lauren is a student of the university’s respected Institute of Education that is a leading provider of teacher training.
