No, she writes her own, but his job is to listen to them half a dozen times until she gets them right. Then he has to sit behind her, ready to prompt her if she forgets the punch line. That'd make any of us feel miserable.

Made me chuckle

.... because his wife is going to find that he isn't actually at work, and neither is his secretary.

You guys attending SCD do have to suffer for the privilege though . Never knew the seats were hard and is it about 6hrs you have to be seated ? Don't think the bum was meant to endure that torture

Looks like a makeshift theatre . Don't think this place at Elstree was ever meant to be a theatre .

Bl**dy golf course,presumably

What?
At that time of night?
Floodlit golf?
The only other player he'd be likely to meet would be Naga.

When told he had front seats for the top Saturday night show, He thought he was going to the X factor

Miserable audience member* behind Tess wanted to be 'anywhere but there' because he was a true northerner and declared Tess's accent 'cruel and unusual punishment'.
Miserable audience member* behind Tess wanted to be 'anywhere but there' because Tess's outfits are enough to make a falcon go cross-eyed
Miserable audience member* behind Tess wanted to be 'anywhere but there' because he was the only one not sexted by Vernon yet and was getting nervous
Miserable audience member* behind Tess wanted to be 'anywhere but there' because she farts as badly as she tells jokes

He's the one person who wanted Charlotte Crosby

Even in this country it's done, but not on such a grand scale usually for charity.

Of course it never happens the other way around :rolls eyes:

He is working his way through the modern version of the 12 labours of Hercules.
So far he has watched an England penalty shootout without hiding behind a cushion. sat through two Trump-Clinton debates without his eyes rolling into the back of his head and watched three live recordings of Mrs Brown's Boys without grinding his teeth to pulp.
This task was to get through the whole Strictly show without management realising HE IS THE MOLE!

I'll keep a look out!

...he was the cleaner at Nobu Mayfair in 1999 and has never forgiven Boris Becker for what he had to clean up in the broom cupboard the morning after...!!!

He was concerned about the wellbeing of the Kestrel

...and what was his excuse for looking like that throughout the entirety of the show?

Reminds me of when my sis and I went to a Bon Jovi concert a few years ago and there was a man sat next to her who had a face like thunder throughout the entire show. We laughed and assumed he'd been dragged along by a girlfriend/wife/embarrassing friend. Didn't make it any better when my sister leapt up to cheer, lost her balance and stuck her nails into his bald head. At that point I think he just wanted to cry

That is hilarious SamLouise.

I would have bee non the floor if I'd been there!

Okay that made me laugh.

they are not hard - well, they kinda are - they have a teeny tiny really thin "cushion" on them so yeah, basically its like sitting on a wooden chair!!

dont know what the benches are like upstairs in the balcony tho

its about 6 hours - we were let in around 4pm ish (to the studio to be seated) and filming finished around 10.30pm - there is a break in between the live show and filming the results show and you are allowed to leave your seat , go to the toilet, get a drink etc - many did but I didnt

OT I know, but I've always been curious- do you have space for a handbag under these teeny tiny chairs or do you have to leave anything bigger than an evening bag in the cloakroom?

Given the time people have to sit in the chairs, the space is probably designed for a "survival kit."

He is AJ's stunt double.
