Does anyone play Connections, also from the NYT website? Bobkin Jnr made me aware of it and I love it. Sixteen words, four groups of four and four lives to piece it all together. Aced it this morning with zero mistakes (but a bit of luck). The Americanisms catch me out sometimes, but it's a good brain workout.

I’ve got into that, not often I complete it though, only 2/4 lines today.

Yep, its very much like the connecting wall on Only Connect.

I enjoy it - wakes my brain up certainly. The Americanisms can be annoying though, as you say.

Actually, I seem to recall Victoria Coren Mitchell mentioning a while back how someone had been inspired by (copied) the show/format. Not sure if it was this, though.
