Only Connect (BBC4)

Best just to go all-in at the earliest opportunity then...

I have done the 'fun walls' and want to try having a go at the tournament but cannot for the life of me find out how you are supposed to 'log in'. I can't even find a log in button.

Thanks for reminding us - I would have missed it.

It's a knockout competition with 16 teams, so yes - 15 episodes. I think the final's on December 22nd.

Understandable when you know there's a Welland canal (not Yelland)

Oo-er

 

[Raven2099]

I honestly don't know... I guess it's down to PVRs or iPlayer if you miss it.

 

[BelaBee]

I remember that from Eberneezers Double.

I also knew Charles "Pete" Conrad was 3rd man on the moon so would have scored 3 there.

 

[Oak Tree]

I've got a "Toppy-Control-Timer" set, so I never miss it!

I'm gay but I'm also a little bit in love with Victoria Coren!

 

[rockstarbeau7]

I only really watch the show for Ms Coren... I now understand how men felt about Joan Bakewell in the sixties...

The problem with the missing vowel round is if you get one person who is really good then they can undo all the good work done in the previous (harder rounRAB).

Often the game comes down to who has the best player in this round. This has been made wrose by a longer final round.

 

[jbelljarnet]

I agree. I watched monday's episode again and found it remarkably easy second time around!

We do our best to mix things up so that we cover different subjects in each show and that there's enough confusion between the groups. The topics in the later rounRAB get harder.

If you have better ideas, email or PM me a sample grid of your own and we'll consider it.

Cheers,

Thanks all - would have definately missed this but for your info.

 

[Johnny Awesome]

Yes it was. The final round lasts 1.5 to 2.5 minutes depending on how long the rest of the show took. Since both teams did well on rounRAB 1 and 2, and cleaned up the walls without the need for further explanation, there was more time for hot vowel action.

I have it set on reminder but it also depenRAB what else is on. Luckily BBC4 repeat shows, a lot!
The thing is that OC is not a show you want to watch after a few glasses in the early morning. Your mind may explode!


Plus you drift off and just imagine Vicky Coren saying dirty things to you

It was fun, if not a bit geeky. I liked The Book Quiz
