Anybody going to be watching this?
(We're not, it clashes with the repeats of Peter Davison's "Campion" on the Drama channel. That's enough whimsy for us these days ....
)

Ouch!
That is my last toenail pulled; now I have to knock them all back in. Hopefully it will be over by the time I have done.

Totally fed up with this election business and when anything on it comes up I change the channel.
The only comment I have to make is that the ne4xt government is likely to be even worse than this one

We watched all of it. It was quite interesting watching the posturing. Milliband was a hoot - he had obviously been receiving training and was carefully choreographed.
Hubby and I were doing surveys for YouGov - we had two completely different surveys to do, but we would have watched it anyway.

We watched it all, but it really was a waste of time.
It didn't change my voting intentions.

I missed every second of it, but I am following it up in the media.
It is not exactly headline news across the printed press, apart from the broadsheets, and even they are not galvanised by it. The Sun's #Massdebate verdict, probably sums it up. According to the poll of polls Farage, Milliband and Cameron are neck and neck with Sturgeon not far behind. The rest are in single figures.
However, dig down into the comments of the common people (not a carefully selected audience) and a different story emerges. Farage won hands down, Cameron was nondescript and Milliband did his party no good at all.
I am so looking forward to missing the next one.

I watched it and interestingly during the actual debate the only person to get a round of applause from the audience was Nick Clegg and that happened twice
