@shanechowen @imshanereaction Ah, Lord Kilclooney, good to have you here 😂

@Leeds_guy When I was a kid, our house was called Samlesbury in honour of the connection

[David Southworth @RealDL23]

@Leeds_guy Yes! Allegedly... Years ago, my dad (and I think his father before him) did a load of family tree digging, and although the line can't be reliably traced through the 19th Century, it's very likely

@TimBSpeaks @willhowells Similar - 4g1c. Which tells you a lot about the luck involved in the 4...!

[David Southworth @RealDL23]

@AlishaDoutt Thank you! And a Happy New Year to you too, Alisha

[David Southworth @RealDL23]

@AnnaHayfield @NeverEnoughShoe @jessilicious Thanks Anna! It was so much fun to go back again. Now where can I sign up to the petition for a Dungeon Masters v Discotheques special...

[David Southworth @RealDL23]

@QuizQuizQuiz @NeverEnoughShoe @jessilicious @joanna_m is their lovely captain (who also has the greatest ever intro fact to never make it on air...)

I love all of the #onlyconnect specials, but I think tonight’s “Cold Special” might just be my favourite because of the harmony between questions and teams. @NeverEnoughShoe @jessilicious @RealDL23 from the Apres Skiers and the amazing Nordiphiles (whose Twitter ids I don’t know)

[David Southworth @RealDL23]

Next Wednesday, 29th December, 8pm on BBC2 - enjoy!

[David Southworth @RealDL23]

A little something to entertain you between Christmas and New Year - you can watch me fail to spot a link that could barely have been more in my zone if I'd written it myself...

Holy shit, that was tough! What a great game, brilliant quizzing from both teams, and congratulations to the Puzzle Hunters #onlyconnect

@gheizhwinder Thanks Ali!

[David Southworth @RealDL23]

@HudsonClare Thanks Clare!

[David Southworth @RealDL23]

One last time...

We've somehow managed to dodge the dreaded sing-along in our first four games. But that lucky run comes to an end tonight, so cover your ears about 10 minutes in!

@Hedzie 👏👏👏

@DiabeticDadUK Don't worry, we got minus 1!

[David Southworth @RealDL23]

Well played, @alanflanagan, @linsbaumeister, and the inimitable Alan Hay - that was a LOT of fun. Although one of you might have to remind me how Missing Vowels works, it looks like I might have forgotten...!

[David Southworth @RealDL23]

@alanflanagan Thanks! 🤓
