Viewers of Only Connect were frustrated as a team failed to answer a famous Wham question, causing them to yell at their screens.
The recent episode of Only Connect, hosted by Victoria Coren Mitchell, had fans glued to their television screens as they witnessed a nail-biting battle between two teams, Hopsters and Sprouters. The competition was intense as both teams tackled the toughest wall on TV.

The Hopsters were off to a strong start, scoring six points and successfully identifying two groups - famous fictional planets and words that come before the word 'factor'. Next up were the Sprouters, who managed to figure out two groups as well, but struggled with the remaining pairs. These included Tropicana, Sandwich, Soda, and Class. Easy, right? Well, not quite.

As the iconic 80s anthem 'Club Tropicana' stared them in the face, viewers at home were left screaming in frustration as the Sprouters failed to recognize the song by the band Wham. The Hopsters, on the other hand, had no trouble with factors and planets, but the Sprouters just couldn't seem to spot the connection between Popes, Juice drinks, Clubs, and musical Keiths.

It turns out that the key to the wall was the word 'Urban', which is both the name of a pope and a singer. Fans took to social media to express their disappointment at the Sprouters' oversight. "Arrgghh, how did they not see Club Tropicana?" wrote one viewer. Another joked, "I can't be friends with anyone who doesn't automatically assume Tropicana is preceded by Club."

Despite their mistake, the Sprouters managed to win the episode with a whopping 24 points, trouncing the Hopsters who scored 10 points less. But it wasn't all bad for the Hopsters, as they will get a second chance at glory in a future episode.

The viewers quickly moved on from the Sprouters' blunder and congratulated them on their win. "Well done to the Sprouters - a mighty fine quiz team," wrote one fan. Another added, "From the quality of the rounds, the Sprouters are a team to watch this series."

However, the Sprouters' victory was not the only highlight of the episode. One contestant proudly proclaimed that he was "fat and loud" after receiving cruel jibes, while another round left viewers scratching their heads with some seemingly impossible gameshow questions.

Overall, it was an eventful and entertaining episode of Only Connect, leaving fans eagerly awaiting the next one. The show airs on Monday at 8pm on BBC Two and BBC iPlayer. And, if you have a celebrity story, video, or pictures, don't hesitate to get in touch with the entertainment team - they would love to hear from you.
