Only Connect
The popular BBC Four quiz hosted by Victoria Coren returns in 2013!
It's the quiz where, as in life itself, knowledge will only take you so far: patience and lateral thinking are also vital. It’s all about making connections between things which may appear, at first glance, not to be connected at all.
We’re looking for teams of three players who share a common passion, ability or profession, to pool their combined wits to solve fiendish conundrums and vexing puzzles.
To request an application please email onlyconnect@parasolmedia.co.uk including a contact name and number. The closing date for applications is Friday 25th January 2013, so get them in as soon as possible.
If you applied for a previous series, but were unsuccessful, you are welcome to apply again for the new series. Auditions will be held in regional centres across the UK. All applicants must be aged 18+ and U.K. Residents.
Deadline: 25th January 2013
Interview expenses paid?: No
Show expenses paid?: Yes
Interview cities: Around the UK
