Wriggling Snake Jul 2016 10:36am, 12 Jul 2016 12,362 posts	0 Wriggling Snake It's back, how excellent. I was out running so watched it on catch up. I won, 22-9 with OH. To give here credit she shouted RICKY POINTING very quickly and ludly while I was scratching around with the Waugh brothers. Only Connect, I'm not such a fan, a load toshat times. I find the people really annoying and Victora too, all that nonsense at the start and end. Did you see the IT arse in his stupid keyboard shirt, what a berk, I used to work with peopl like that, they got sod all too :-), and don't start me on that smug bastard in the middle of the winning team. I got the Dad's Army question, 5 points! Obvs.

Only Connect is a great quiz concept and could make a great show ... if they took out all the hype, false suspense and general bollocks that ruins it. Oh, and had it chaired by somebody intelligent who doesn't make me want to throw things at the TV.

Weean Jul 2016 9:13pm, 12 Jul 2016 1,051 posts	0 Weean Me and a couple of mates from work auditioned to be on the current series of OC. One girl really, really wanted to be on it, and the other two of us really, really didn't but were too polite to say anything. We failed the audition - result!
flanker Jul 2016 12:15am, 13 Jul 2016 16,574 posts	0 flanker Neither of which actually makes her intelligent swittle, but point taken. She, and the whole format of the show, still make me want to throw things at the screen.
Wriggling Snake Jul 2016 7:14am, 13 Jul 2016 12,373 posts	0 Wriggling Snake I still didn't like his shirt. I'm not sure it's the format, it's the aren't we clever smugness. What do points make :-)?
