fairness to the audience?  Oh right, telling them to shut up and chastizing them for being fickle and partisan, having to remind them time and time again when they disagree with a interruption that 'it is the game', yeah that's really being fair I must say.

These are all good points Jeremy.

If you carefully read back the yo-yo excerpts I posted a week ago, you
notice that Maureen Lipman had been going a while and was really just
filling time, while Gyles had been going only a few seconds and was
already being witty and clever.

In terms of fairness to the audience Nicholas is usually pretty good...
