    He's a bit of a mixed bag, I like the way he doesn't curry favour. On the other he can like so many, talk himself into a corner resulting in an awkward moment or two.

    Mike.

    Oddly for Myers and (happily for me) I found his diction very poor.
    An interesting choice of stand in. He didn't stir it up at all though as one might expect from him.
    He also seemed confused by the gadgets and struggled with the editor in his ear. That is fair enough though as he wasn't standing in for the merits of his broadcasting ability but more for his ability to say his mind and stand his ground. There wasn't much happenening in the world yesterday that required that of him though.
    Still and all though I enjoyed it if only for to be able to say...'stop slurring your words, where were you dragged up, Leicester?'.
    I only flipped over from mary 'click,click' wilson when she'd a topic she was bored with and therefore hear her computer mouse going into overdrive. Is she selling something on E-bay?

    He didn't seem fond of the cost of texting in.

    he was awful, he was inviting the trasnsport guy and he just talked in circles, he seem not to want to get the story out just disagree with people, and he made lots of mysoginistic comments
