BB, similar forecasts were made last week based on the advertised lineup and they proved to be way off the mark, it was entertaining and informative with all MPs playing a part. The more real life exposure MPs get the better.

I flagged last week because of the cast but as Pete said, it was (so i hear) a really good show. May have to stick to 1 btl of wine tonight to avoid nodding off after last nights thunder storm kept me up for bloody hours.

Poor old Dunney —-still trying to peddle his bullshit to the easily deceived. Just because he has hair like Marie Antoinette is no reason to suspect he would be the natural choice after we have sacked the present Queen.
