Powell is the king.

LAST NIGHT, THE final of University Challenge took place.

It was an absolute bloodbath.

While the technical winners were Peterhouse College Cambridge, the ACTUAL winner of the series was Powell’s expressions.

Yes, once again, Oscar was the talk of Twitter with his… expressive face.

We’d go so far as to say that he beat St John’s College Oxford singlehandedly

Powell's face is so wonderful. He really takes you on a journey. #universitychallenge pic.twitter.com/FacnTITPoZ
