Series 16 Specials: 1. Christmas: Edwards Family v Wrights
Victoria Coren Mitchell is back in the host’s chair for a one-off special of Only Connect, the series where knowledge will only take you so far. Patience and lateral thinking are also vital.\n\nTwo favourite family teams from previous series return for a family-themed Christmas special. It’s a festive affair with snow on the ground as the Edwards Family square up to the Wrights in a competition to draw together the connections between things which, at first glance, seem utterly random.\n\nSo raise a glass and join Victoria Coren Mitchell if you want to know what connects a Johannes Vermeer painting, Jenner’s cowpox inspiration, Tess Durbeyfield’s profession and a gift on the eighth day of Christmas.
