On the subject of "Foot the ball". One can guess how much
I care by the fact that the I'm much more concerned that the absence of football and tennis from the Television means that tonight "Only Connect"
* and "University Challenge" return to our screens.
* For the non-Brits: A quiz show that after its first season received complaints that its use of Greek letters to designate the questions that contestants picked next was too abstruse. They acknowledged this and in response changed to Egyptian hieroglyphs.
If I have to explain University Challenge to anyone, a show that's been running since 1962 and, until the advent of Only Connect, was generally regarded as the hardest quiz on TV anywhere then I really don't know quite what insult I'd have to formulate for the questioner. My guess is that, whatever it was, they probably wouldn't understand it.
