24/11/2014 Connecting Wall The answers can be arranged into 5 groups of 4 whereby each answer in a group has a word or part of a word (sometimes in sound, rather than spelling) in common with the other answers in that group.  The 5 shared words/part-words provide a phrase particularly pertinent to the occasion on which this round was first used (N.B. The first Albert Club end of month quiz took place on January 30th 2006).
