Meet Mr Marmaduke, your starter for ten

This is Marmaduke. Correction: Mister Marmaduke. He was originally just plain old Marmaduke; the ‘Mister’ was added when we saw a horse called Mr Marmaduke on some televised horse racing a few months ago. We’re not interested in horses particularly. We were just trying to pick up fashion tips from Clare Balding.
We don’t have any dogs or cats; just bears. Loads of them. And eventually they simply take over. Just look at the picture. He’s got my teacup, my — well, Shana’s — tv remote control ‘zapper’, and our sofa. We’ll just sit on the floor then, shall we?
University Challenge was on last night. Of course, we can never watch it without having to have a mascot, just like the competing teams. Now, who do you think was our mascot yesterday evening?
I’m not going to reveal how many questions Shana and I managed to answer. It was more than we did last week though.
