The subject of the second main grid - Beatrix Potter characters - had originally appeared as a final grid in Episode #5.16 (1998).
However, despite being on the same subject, only two of the options were the same on both grids: Mr Jeremy Fisher ("Jeremy Fisher" in the earlier episode) and Mr Tod ("Mr. Tod" in the previous version.)

In a grid on Beatrix Potter characters, Bob asks the contestants if they've seen any movies associated with the topic. As no specific movies are cited, this isn't included in Movie Connections.
Contestant Susan Witterick tells Bob that she worked behind the scenes in Ireland on the Eurovision Song Contest. As she worked for RTE television from 1996-1997, and the Dublin 1997 (1997) was set in Ireland, it seems almost certain that this was the edition she worked on. However, as she doesn't specify a particular edition, the generic overall title is listed under Movie Connections.
"The Rainmaker" appears as a Wipeout answer on an Auction Grid about disaster movies. As there is more than one film with the title, and none are specified, this isn't included under Movie Connections.
