Only Connect!!

I haven't seen any of the latest series, so you can understand how surprised I was to see in this evenings episode the gorgeous Vicky looking like she's 11 month's gone and that her 'airbags' have gone off!!

Has Joan Bakewell graciously abdicated and passed the soubriquet of 'Thinking man's crumpet' on to the next torchbearer?

That's the one Hoppy ! I know the days when all the contestants wore tweed sports jackets are long gone, but the addition of a shirt wouldn't have killed him, would it ! He had hardly anything to say either !

Sandy...I can think of no more appropriate moniker for our lovely Victoria, than the new Thinking Mans' Crumpet ! To repeat...men like curves !

Some people put Carol Vorderman as the next holder of "thinking man's crumpet " after Joan Bakewell.

Sadly for Carol it's all behind her now!

I really like Carol Vorderman she is gorgeous but our Vicky is in a different league - she is stupendous!

As for the quiz itself - it's obscure in the extreme but good fun - the only round I excel in is the missing vowels, but last night the novels of John something beginning with'P' baffled me as much as the team's - I'd never heard of him either!

I love Only Connect, but I'm afraid the main thing I noticed last evening was that the spots on the two halves of the bodice of her dress didn't match up - sad, or what!!!!!!

I too love the programme and think Victoria if great, but that dress last night made my eyes go funny and I didn't think it was very flattering. The only rounds I am any good at are the wall and missing vowels, with an occasional flash of inspiration on the connections. We do it as a family (3) and really enjoy it.
