I guessed the purple connection when it was left (apart from the one word which, on googling, I think was a bit spurious. I see they did it for a red herring, but a look at the comments section also has the same complaint).

Had to do lots of googling.
V nearly fell for the red herring, PBD and agree with PPs, one of the blues I'd never heard of and was a lucky guess.

I knew all the connections but couldn’t make them fit.

Got there eventually. One of the blues I’ve never heard of and purple made no sense at all!

I knew the blue connection, but couldn't find the fourth one, as had never heard of it, and no clue about purple!
