The British are Better Than Us Weekend: “Only Connect” Series Two Episode One
There are so many new British clips and games I want to show you all that it’ll take weeks/months before I finish things from just this week alone, so I’m going to shove as much as I humanly can in the course of a weekend. First I want to show off series two of BBC 4′s Only Connect which I believe is the smartest television show on the planet and is at least to me the best game show airing anywhere right now. It had a pretty decent following around here so I definitely want to show you the new season. Take a look at the awesome Victoria Coren and the show where you have to link four seemingly distant items. How’d you do against the contestants?

As always you can watch the faster-loading lower quality Flash version or click Mobile to watch the high quality Quicktime version. It’s also made special for iPhones, so you can watch it anywhere you go.
If you ever want to feel how dumb you are as an American versus a Brit, watch this show!
I got Barber and Berlin right.
Chico: I have a saying for myself when I'm editing the questions and trying to decide if a question is too easy: "Never underestimate the ability of contestants to stuff things up."
Is there any way to post more episodes or point us to where to find them? I loved this, and want more!
I want to know who won the last series of Only Connect which is a brilliant programme
The Rugby Boys won Series 2, but Series 1 champs the Crossworders beat them in the Champion of Champions match.
