Some laugh if Torquay beat Derby in that replay and the prime slot on FA Cup weekend ends up dedicated to a team scraping around the bottom of League 2 playing a team scraping around the bottom of the National League.

I don't  think it matters. The whole strategy is about the oldest competition and "minnows" dreaming of Wembley etc. Even if it is Derby it won't significantly improve viewing figures.

Second Round today and tomorrow. List of televised games posted by @The Master above. Only one all non-league tie, Wrexham (5) v Farnborough (6). Lowest level club still in the Cup is Alvechurch (7) away to Forest Green Rovers (3).

Alvechurch are the lowest ranked side in the FA Cup and they beat Cheltenham Town in the 1st round. They seemed to have went to Forest Green Rovers and gave them a tough game in the 2nd round.

I've never heard of the place but it sounds like the setting of a period drama where the Lord of the Manor wants his daughter to marry a boring, stuffy elitist boy who's "of money" but she can't be arsed with that. It would probably be a midweek evening BBC drama 🤪

It's a moderately affluent/middle class area on the outskirts of Birmingham. It's fairly pleasant and has some good pubs.
