My favorite British TV quiz show, Only Connect, returns in the UK tonight. To celebrate, I’ve created this crossword. (Technically, I guess the British would call it an “American-style crossword.”)
The basic unit of gameplay in the show: host Victoria Coren Mitchell gives the contestants a group of four apparently random clues, and they have to figure out the connection among them. The fewer clues they need to figure out the connection, the more points they get. Victoria is a wonderful host with a very dry wit. If you don’t watch the show, this puzzle will probably be meaningless, and you should go find it on YouTube. Now.
Otherwise, enjoy.
