This was at the time when he was featured in a double Glazing advertising campaign. He remarked that there was a draught in the studio to which a young member of the audience retorted, 'You should fit the best, Everest!' which caused some hilarity.

It's very good. We're addicted to Coundown here - we video it and pause it if we can't do the maths in the time - but we have strict time limits. We zap through all the cr@p though. I wouldn't be good enough to be on it - I've been on 15-1 though - that was pretty scary!
