Hi Jazzgirl,
You may be amused to know that I've just watched tonight's edition of the quiz with the volume turned down as I had to take a 'phone call...
One of the names was familiar to me through Big Dave's Crossword Blog and you'll perhaps have noted that Nimrod referred to the site on Saturday. For that reason, if you feel so inclined, try
http://bigdave44.com/ and you'll find that Big Dave has made mention of tonight's edition of 'Only Connect'.
With kind regards,
