But Tubs calmed down in the second half, and I think he was a million times better than uncomfortable Pat and his awkward attempts at recapturing lost youth off the backs of cynical ten-year-olds. <i>That</i> was what the Toy Show had to claw its way back from. I think Tubs is a big step in the right direction, to be honest. I think there was far too much pressure to get through all the toys they'd obviously promised toy companies they would hawk. I felt at the end we didn't get any really great feedback on the most exciting toys this Christmas. I hope they rectify that next year, because it's really taking away the most precious things about the Toy Show - the reactions from the children who've been chosen to play with the toys. Mighty audience prizes, though!

He didnt pay attention to anything the poor kids where saying and just focused on trying (i say trying but failing) to be funny. He really is the biggest nobjockey Ive seen in a long time..... Hes taking the national institution (the toy show) and truly fucked it to the gutter. ok not a toy but did anyone see The Late Late toy show last night? jaysus what a pile of shite. my god it was painful to watch.

There had to have been a really shitty toy in your life somewhere! Remember those £1 hollow plastic Barbies that wore plastic boob-tube dresses, kept getting inverted nipples, and only had hair threaded into the middle seam of their collapsable heads? I had tons of them because I never had a real Barbie. God, they SUCKED. Also, you had a video recorder in your room that didn't work and was only for decorative purposes. THAT was shit, no? Manuel, I'm sure it had other uses. Surely it came in handy when hoovering HobNob crumbs from the flabs of your belly? Efa, I'm glad someone agrees. Mr. Frostys are horrendous. Kaz, come on!

Besos Manuel Hola Sweary!
