The delightful Eleanor might have stolen Paddy's thunder in the publicity stakes, BUT without his knowledge and speed of thought, she'd have been going home with no cash towards that Polo Pony ((:>)
Avoided this thread this morning as I didn't want to know the result. I felt like The Likely Lads avoiding finding out all day, though the chances of any single person in Thailand having watched this live at midnight last night were indeed slim.
Thanks to Nord VPN and ITV Hub, I just watched "as live" so I could experience the lovely Eleanor Paddy's performance (and shirt) in all its glory.
Paddy by jazz do you mean Kenny G or more John Coltrane?
Kenny G is anything but jazz and it saddens me that people think he is. He is an out-of-tune elevator music practitioner.
That said, Branford Marsalis probably put it best when he said people should lay off him: people who listen to Kenny G aren't exactly gonna be listening to any Miles or Ornette or Trade or whoever. So he's not "stealing jazz fans" or anything.
Eleanor coming up absolutely clutch with that! The fist pump was because I knew we had it in the bag at that point. Well, I thought we had it after Shearer to be fair!

"Please God, don't let Eleanor notice my boner"
Got zero in the cash builder, took the higher offer and went through with 40k
That's what Eleanor thought he said.
I do.
