I will watch it way into the wee small hours

Hopefully some big names will be booted out, I remember with great fondness watching live as the likes of Portillo and Patten got their marching orders. Wonderful television, they should do more episodes

I'll watch it also. It could just be an historic night for the LibDems and should be fascinating.

PS who decided that historic should be preceeded by "an" as opposed to "a"

The telly is already bad and we pay a licence for it

Would be even worse if the tory,s get in,

Grammar did 'An must always be used when going before an H' I think when its before a description (Ha Ha Probably wrong on the descrpition bit!!)

Should it be "an Highlander" then.

(My goodness, how inane must some people think this is. Scunner - don't bother

)

No because you pronounce the 'H' in Highlander therefore it is......
A Highlander!!:D

Why do people say "an Hotel" then? We don't say otel, we pronounce the H (except in Cockneyshire).
