Why is it acceptable for Tess to admire Gavin's arms and get him to flex in a rather half-hearted and embarassed manner? Would a male presenter do the same by voicing his opinion on a female competitor's chest?

Arm muscles and breasts are a wee bit different. Tess would need to comment on the gentlemen's packages.. A male presenter is still allowed to comment on women's legs for instance.

However, I don't like when she does that either, so.....

I had to howl with laughter when his partner was walking off linking his arm and his arm was hanging limply by his side , she had to flex it for him and tuck her arm in his . Hilarious He obviously is not used to escorting a lady .

I'm suggesting that Gavin takes out a restraining order now.

I think it's out of order, especially when the man looks embarrassed by it. At least with Austin he wasn't embarrassed by it.

I agree - Gavin doesn't seem to be overly popular but I think he seems quite shy(?) and hopefully Tess can add a few more words to her vocabulary other than 'guns'

My first and only reaction was FFS Tess shut up.

It's old now.

Well, if it's any consolation just remember that while she's making a tit of herself, somewhere her husband is texting glamour models. That's life.

That's so bitchy! But ironically it's true!

I seem to remember Austin Healey being criticised for his muscles, as they interferred with his upper body movements. If that memory is correct, then how much worse is Gavin going to be?

We thought she said "shows us your gums" and we very confused!

It was mildy amusing at first with Austin and his guns did sort of stand out.

But with the introduction of Artem and Robin, Gavin was totally outgunned! And he looked like he was going to cry when Tess asked him to show off his own.

He did, didn't he! I found that very amusing.

Bruce does this all the time. He might be much more subtle/indirect about it, but it's just as obvious.

Bless him!! I'm starting to feel sorry for him already - or do I need to toughen up? He just looks soooo uncomfortable!

If two brain cells actually bumped into each other inside Tess's head they'd be just as startled.

What do you expect? She's got form.

Why are they called, "Guns" ? First time I heard that term was when Austin Healy competed.
