It’s been no secret that we love Only Connect, but if you don’t read the forum then you might not realise that we’ve been promising to put a team together ever since series one. The fourth series starts tonight, and I can reveal that we do indeed have a team taking part later in this [...]

The grand final of Only Connect seems to have come round rather quickly (and no third place play-off this year? Boo!) as tonight the Strategists face the Gamblers. I’m tipping the Gamblers to win given their semi-final with the Archers Admirers was electric and by rights should have been the final seeing as they’ve been [...]

The best quiz show on telly has become a lot better in recent weeks, with the addition of connecting walls to the Only Connect website so everyone can play at home. For the uninitiated, the wall is a round towards the end of the game show where sixteen words have to be arranged into four [...]

Well last night was a treat, lowculture’s favourite quiz show, Only Connect returned on BBC4 and brought with it more witty ways to make us feel stupid and clever at the same time. Which is always lovely, it’s something akin to the same way that fat kids felt when thinking that they were watching Anna [...]

We started of with Professor Magwitch doing a turn as an annoying woman banging on about her lost child after billions of people died in Survivors.

It’s finally been scheduled for tonight though, and it should be a perfect introduction to [...]

The series finale of our favourite quiz show, Only Connect is here, and we have the Cambridge Quiz Society (featuring the forum heartthrob du jour, Simon Spiro) against the Rugby [...]

When it comes to celebrity siblings, it’s customary to have a favourite. Noel or Liam, Grant or Phil, Dannii or Kylie – most people will know which side they’re on. However, with Giles and Victoria Coren, it’s not easy to choose which one’s the best. Giles could probably bag you a free meal at a [...]

COREN! Only Connect, BBC Four, 8.30pm Tonight sees the final of our current favourite quiz, Only Connect. The Crossworders take on the Lapsed Psychologists for the champions’ title. It will be a hard slog to get there. Last week’s semi-final was notable for neither of the teams getting many points at all, and for your [...]

GREEK! Only Connect, BBC Four, 8.30pm Over the past week, the buzz on the forums has been all about Only Connect. So, even though it’s several weeks into its run, it only seemed right that eventually we gave it some front page space. And hey, it’s a quiz show, so what does it matter if [...]
