22.02.2025 23:35 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I was DELIGHTED to see a newspaper listing describe last week's episode of Only Connect as "two teams battling to make the third place play-off".
The last opportunity to qualify for that key match is TONIGHT AT 8pm on BBC Two. (And whichever team doesn't make it will be in the final).
One is lighter than the other
