Weaver<p>This Week, I'm looking back at BBC2's Chess Masters.</p><p>Was this a chess show played by humans; or a human interest show using chess as a metaphor? Because the programme fell between stools and made depressingly little sense.</p><p>Plus! Some words about Genius Game, the ITV show you would enjoy.</p><p>Look, you're on Mastodon, and Genius Game is the most Mastodon show since Only Connect. And it's got David Tennant!</p><p><a href="http://www.ukgameshows.com/ukgs/Weaver%27s_Week_2025-05-04" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ukgameshows.com/ukgs/Weaver%27</span><span class="invisible">s_Week_2025-05-04</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/WeaversWeek" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WeaversWeek</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/GameShow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GameShow</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/ChessMasters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChessMasters</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/GeniusGame" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GeniusGame</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/OnlyConnect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OnlyConnect</span></a></p>
samjc<p>What's even the point of Monday evening when <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/onlyconnect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>onlyconnect</span></a> is over?</p>
Mark H<p><a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/ChessMasters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChessMasters</span></a> was an unbelievably poor high-brow replacement for <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/OnlyConnect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OnlyConnect</span></a> but it could have been worse. We could have had sob stories. They could have started singing.</p>
Weaver<p>The annual post of appreciation for BBC2's Only Connect.</p><p>I'm in awe of the contestants, who make the most amazing leaps between subjects, and do it so easily. Like parkour for the mind!</p><p>And the production staff, with a precise attention to detail - other shows have to emulate it, otherwise we'll snark as "wouldn't get away with that in Splott".</p><p>Plus! Some UC stats, Claudia gets very very excited, and Race Across "The World" visits London.</p><p><a href="http://www.ukgameshows.com/ukgs/Weaver%27s_Week_2025-03-09" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">ukgameshows.com/ukgs/Weaver%27</span><span class="invisible">s_Week_2025-03-09</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/GameShow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GameShow</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/OnlyConnect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OnlyConnect</span></a></p>

The Void ザ・ヴォイド<p>I think there was another valid answer to the <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/OnlyConnect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OnlyConnect</span></a> Q that started “Greater than 5”.</p>

comicmuse ☘️<p>Though the Only Connect kippah's on the Four Opinions are excellent. <br /><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/OnlyConnect" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OnlyConnect</span></a></p>
comicmuse ☘️<p>Tea Totallers for me I think. There's something about Matt. <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/OnlyConnect" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OnlyConnect</span></a></p>

comicmuse ☘️<p>Evenin' All. Let's get the final on. <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/OnlyConnect" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OnlyConnect</span></a></p>
comicmuse ☘️<p>I would have said "...week to quit sniffing glue" on the basis that it was the five last words in the quote, and I suspect Victoria wouldn't have given it to me. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/OnlyConnect" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>OnlyConnect</span></a></p>
