Happy New Year everyone! I hope you have a wonderful 12 months to look forward to!

We're hoping to start the new year off right - join the Tea Totallers as we take on the mighty Too Many Cookes and prepare to battle our way out of Only Connect's ultimate group of death! See you at 8pm on BBC 2...

Apologies - as I was scheduled to do the weather on the Six and Ten this evening I had to send a stunt-Matt to take my place on Only Connect. Gutted. I believe this is how I would have appeared after a clean sweep on the missing vowels round too 😁

My #OnlyConnect quarter-final! Monday. 8pm. BBC Two.

So we made it to the end, but what happened next? Find out tonight at 8pm on BBC 2... bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…

A terrific final to end a brilliant series I am proud to be a part of! Congrats, Four Opinions, and commiserations, Tea Totallers Eleanor Ayres Matt Taylor Rob Sassoon! Series 21 contestants, you'll have a blast! #OnlyConnect
