Only Connect – Quirky Introductions

[naomi24]

With Only Connect’s penchant for quirky snippets about each player, if you were a contestant, how would you ask Victoria to introduce you?

Me: Naomi, a student of religious history, who, in the footsteps of the Israelites, was once led across the Sinai Desert by a man named Moses.

I wish she wouldn't keep asking the contestants to sing. She didn't do that when it was on BBC4.

Not keen on 'chirpy' then, mrchirpy?

Next thing you know, they'll have Mr. Blobby running round throwing tins of paint on people. Where will it all end?

Quirky snippet: Spent six months in the Pacific watching twenty four atom bombs exploding.

That's a great question, Naomi. I hope the thread keeps going while I think up something for me. They manage to come up with something news each time they're on. Impressive.

Quirky snippet for myself:- Aged 8 won a Christmas Pudding in the school raffle, dropped it on the way home and a car ran over it. Also played baby Jesus in Ben-Hur (1959)

My quirk would have to be that, aged 14, i played the 1st Murderer AND a monk in my school' production of Macbeth.
