Only Connect: Victoria jokes her 'brain is scrambled' Victoria Coren Mitchell complained her “brain was scrambled” after making an error on Only Connect . The beloved quiz show returned to BBC Two on Monday (August 12) and saw two teams battling to find connections between seemingly independent clues. The 20th series of Only Connect saw Victoria, 51, returning to the helm while the three-person Midlanders team went head-to-head with the Al Frescans.
During the showdown, the former—consisting of Andrew Mearman, Dominic Rayner and Erica Hiorns—were left stumped when four tiles depicting food were unveiled. The first image in the series depicted a plate of Sashimi with a ‘0’ in the right-hand corner while the second was a rotisserie chicken with an overlay ‘1’. A picture of biscotti with the digit ‘2’ was next to be unveiled but the team were still scratching their heads by the end of the timer.
Eventually, the trio claimed the fourth and final snap would be of a chocolate cake but their answer was rejected as they weren’t sure of their reasoning. “In that case, I can’t accept your answer,” said Victoria. “Al Frescans would you like to have a go?” Luckily, the opposing team—comprising of Tom McKechnie, Danielle Cope and Mel Gibbons—realised the digits in the corner of the images correlated to how many times the food item should be cooked.
