By Albert Einstein, correct.

*MUSICAL FANFARE*

I was going to do another group, but I realised I don't have another group ready :P I'm going to tally up the scores and get back to you shortly!

[Kate!]

Good work Shu. I'm off to watch dancing on ice results now x

[Tregard]

So it's the end of the quiz, and looking at the scores...

GiRTh only answered once, but it was on what I suspected to be one of the most difficult questions of the game, enough to secure him 2 points.

We have Jords and Kate, both scoring on the walls and unscrumpling the missing vowels to pluck out 4 a piece (and amazingly, Kate's answer of "Doggy. Sexual positions! Wut???????" had nothing to do with it!)

Marc, determined as ever, shone in my little round of homophones and picked up a respectable 5 points, bridging the gap to our top 3.

Picking up the bronze in this quiz, with a score of 14 is our previous victor Ammi! It wasn't enough to take the win this time but still very well done, consistency from start to finish secured you a podium finish

Taking the silver this time is the first lady of Only Connect on TiBB herself, Livia finished with a brilliant 15 points. Brilliant and sharp as always, her knowledge of Friends characters and Malcolm in the Middle shot her to 2nd place, and her sexual deviancy proved once again an invaluable aid. She also scored what must be the most impressive five pointer I've ever seen, "David Cooke's signature", unbelievable. Very well done for yet another medal position, Livia

But, beating Livia to the punch on quite a few questions proved the key to success here, as with a whopping 21 points the winner of this edition of Only Connect is Shaun! Eurovision translations, the Spring of Bandusia and Dolly the Sheep were all mere stepping stones to the plinth of victory, as he takes the crown from Ammi. Many congratulations, you proved determined for victory and you managed to pick apart my logic rather brilliantly, congratulations!

It's just a bit of a shame none of you know more about IKEA, really.

Shaun = 21
Livia = 15
Ammi = 14
Marc = 5
Kate = 4
Jords = 4
GiRTh = 2
Everyone else = 0

But what's this, ladies and gents? A paradigm shift is occurring!

THE GREAT OC LEADERBOARD

• Shaun: 50
• Livia: 48
• Ammi: 39
• GiRTh: 32
• Marc: 28
• *Kate*: 23
• Zee : 6
• Jords : 4
• Everyone Else: 0
• Cuda: -0.5
• Smithy: -1

Shaun has overtaken Livia as our new highest scoring player! With only 2 points in it, will Livia come back feistier than ever and strike Shaun down? Will Shaun continue his Icarus-like flight ever higher? Will you all continue to waste time attempting to solve my ridiculous whimsical puzzles?

Only time will tell, my friends.

Thank you all you playing

[Kate!]
