I wonder if anyone spotted the little Easter Eggs in the Connecting Walls in the #onlyconnect final. (It's not just that the six hieroglyphs were there - that was hopefully obvious enough...but something a bit more than that)

Don't watch the last 2 seconds or so if you are easily offended.

Do we know anybody who has worked on 'The Cube'? We have rather a niche question to ask of someone in production so would love an intro if anyone can help.

Anyone come across this before? Frank Paul perhaps?

THE YETI SPEAKS (whose two halves use the same letters, in the same order):

Somehow a.) this story about Ed Davey is true b.) it only came up once in an interview because a journalist asked about it ten years ago

Inside Number 9 was really just the greatest TV show. I think my favourite episode, if that's the right word, was The Harrowing. Just realising, at that point, they could take it to a level beyond, give you proper nightmares if they wanted to

"so what have we got planned for the opening ceremony?" "Yes"

this is a corner store uncle. spends every evening smoking marlboro golds and drinking tea with sweaty men outside the store, then you find out one day he’s an electrical engineer or olympic marksman

Happy New Year’s Eve! If you’re staying in tonight, especially by yourself, why not join us for the ONLY CONNECT SINGLE SPECIAL? I would normally say something sardonic at this point but I genuinely think it’s a lovely NYE companion. 8pm on BBC Two

Thoroughly enjoyed Paul Sinha’s book: strong recommend.

As I just said on TV, the tiny crossword visible in tonight’s opening shot was created by our brilliant team member Dan Peake and CAN BE PLAYED. To save you copying it off the television, here are photos of both the simple and cryptic versions. Happy New Year! #OnlyConnect

Can’t wait for the listeners/viewers to hear/see this very special episode. Only Connect Sounds Special, tonight on BBC2 8pm

Finally got full marks on QuizQuizQuiz Friday Quiz for the first time.

Only Connect series 20 final, and the 500th ever episode. Tonight, 8pm on BBC2. Four Opinions vs Tea Totallers Four Opinions: P4 W4. Average score: 23.75. Highest score 29 Tea Totallers: P5 W4. Average scores 25.8. Highest score 31 (Mostly only on Bluesky now)

Did I just spot that the yarmulkes sported by Four Opinions are adorned with the #OnlyConnect logo?

First time in ages I got 100% on the Friday Quiz from QuizQuizQuiz (1 educated guess though on Q4).
