Indeed, was pleased with that.
Our Vic must have had a battle over poker table with our TB at some stage Shirley?

Oddly Vic is now on HIGNFY, and looks two stone lighter. Make up is Amazing these days . . .

I beleive that VCM is a friend of Tony's. She wrote nice things about him in her Guardian column some years back when she was only VC:

I seem to remember her mentioning him again in another column.

In 3 years (or however long its been on) its one of the only answers i have managed to get right, in what must be the geekiest quiz show ever created, the ability of some of the contestants to think so far out of the box in the first 2 rounds, in such a short space of time, is either incredible or they totally need to get out and enjoy themselves a bit.

She was minger monger mongous in the very early episodes of Only Connect, with a tache bigger than Sam Allardyce's back in his playing days and a haircut to match. Serious makeover.
Err... I was being insoucient and self-mocking. Clearly no makeaover - filmed years apart. I happen to think she is seriously delicious, pre and post partum

The other Albion reference on the TV tonight was the appearance of Nigel Kennedy on the BBC1 News.
Variously described as "Hove - born" and "Brighton - born", he described his first experience at a football match - the 6-0 victory of the Albion over Oldham Athletic at the Goldstone. But then his mum moved to Birmingham and he became a Villa supporter.
FFS! When my mum moved to Birmingham, I didn't become a Villa supporter.
KRO. SOTV.

I think he moved there with her though.
Nonetheless, well done for staying loyal.

Lateral thinking abounds. I am also an avid watcher and can only marvel at some of the answers. My intellect stretches as far as trying to work out VCM's chest measurement.
The years are not being kind to our Vic.

That's not all - Chris Hughton was a ''Pointless Answer on ''Pointless'' in the past - I think it was naming the Spurs players in their UEFA Cup winning side in the 1970s

Agreed. It is the quickest 30 minutes of TV around. Mind you, serious ****-up last night with that question on the SDP.
David Mitchell is a lucky man.
I love a bit of Only Connect, yes it's an incredibly tricky quiz, but I do get the odd question or two right. Until the final round that is, then I come in to my own and I reckon I get 80% right, most before the contestants, I wonder does this say something about my brain? More importantly is it a good thing about my brain or am I months away from having the memory of a, oh you know, what they called, those things you poor liquid through? A sieve! Or sv, as I like to call them.
Incidentally, a few series ago I recognised one of the teams as being regulars at our local pub's quiz night, I can indeed confirm they were about as geeky as they looked.
