Oh I missed that, I thought he said to stay behind to do a survey! That's why I rushed out to the loo and came back, thinking I don't mind completing a survey on what I thought, not to say it literally in front of the camera, unless they were given out free tickets as they were doing for Sky! :giggle:

I think everyone was there! What about the two people next to you on your right, are they FMUKers? I was tempted to ask the one in front of me, but I was too busy catching up with my OH.

They did mention the cameras at the beginning - that doesn't mean I had consented in any way to being filmed so I was quite glad to being shoved out by PXC, as it meant we were the first ones out and in the mobile phone queue. No one outside tried to force us back in, I think the camera guys were quite surprised about us bursting out already. And yes, the security guy should have let us out at the back but he was probably told not to!

I would say that FMUK comfortably made up half the audience.
