However, I do not doubt that the data I had was wrong, it suggested that he did not and accounted (falsely perhaps) for lower degrees elsewhere -- so the list is not quite omprehensive.Congratulations to Rob and Michael. Just a minor point. Lord Norton,

Rob is clearly on a roll, as he has now won three quizzes in quick succession. He is thus a grand prize-winner and an invitation to tea at the Lords will be on its way shortly. The answers, as will be apparent, are (1) the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, occupying the courtroom on the ground floor of the Supreme Court; (2) Lord Kerr of Tonaghmore; as some of you mention (David gives a comprehensive list), some Justices have also been to other universities, but Lord Kerr is the only one who has not studied at either Oxford or Cambridge; (3) Lord Hope of Craighead.
