lol, knew this would get us all hot and bothered! 4/5 difficulty though! By the time I got to purple, my connection was 'meh, meh, meh and meh'. (So technically a BD, but I'm going to congratulate myself anyway - and everyone who cracked it!)

Purple was luck and blue definitely by default .

like yesterday I had the connection but not the knowledge to get the fourth blue. GBD (but should have got it).

A very lucky guess/hope with blue helped me find a way into this.

It was meant putting 5 answers to blue in (although I had the dredge the knowledge up from high school)

Struggled separating the blues from the greens as although I could see what the blue connection was, I didn’t have the knowledge to pick out all 4 words, and I had the wrong connection in mind for green. Got there in the end.

PBD. I couldn’t have worked it out even if you told me the connection.

I saw three of the purples early on but the fourth was subtly different (living in the US for a while really helped). I had to google some of the greens to make sure as well.
