Don't despair, the end of Hamish Malcolm doesn't mean the end of Tuesday night BP glory.
The MUDS 'Open Comp' will run over two nights after the holidays -
16th October
Debates will start at 5.30, with two consecutive rounds
23rd October
Third round and Grand Final
As the name suggests, it's open - there's no novice rule so you can sign up with whoever you want (teams of two are permissible provided you can guarantee you won't forfeit). Don't feel intimidated though - while the competition allows experienced debaters to compete together, the MUDS novice focus isn't lost - there will be a Novice Grand Final as well, where the best non-experienced teams compete for equal glory!
