Yes we all use some combination of r s t l n e the letters wheel of fortune gives in the bonus round. Helps to remember previous solutions but I don't do that. The obscure words can be problematic. Does anyone play the 6 letter word game on wizard of odds smarty-pants 6?

"Connections" got a mention on its parent, the BBC quiz show Only Connect, where the host and the contestants seemed to diss it as being too easy. To be fair, compared to the show's Connecting Wall, it is.

I wouldn't call "sterling" a "global currency" - especially if "pound" is an answer as well. I think sterling is used as a synonym for "pounds" in general; you don't say, "The sterling rallied today against the euro," or "one thousand sterling(s)" ("one thousand in sterling," maybe).
