Don't know about you but I need some respite care at this point. Please take our post-debate poll and tell us what you think. (Calm down Alistair will ya!)

UnquietDad · 15/04/2010 22:07

It looked as if DC said "stay on the stage" and NC obeyed!

Brollyflower · 15/04/2010 22:07

Oh, I see I just meant I was expecting Dave to do a giant MN wink at camera or something when mentioning Riven. Just being facetious really .

hybred77 · 15/04/2010 22:07

ooo the shaking hand thing at the end is a bit weird

emillina · 15/04/2010 22:06

gordon to win woo woo ...

Sabs1981 · 15/04/2010 22:06

GB going to shake hand while DC telling NC to stay on stage with him

Bumperliouzzzzzz · 15/04/2010 22:06

What just happened at the end?

wastwinsetandpearls · 15/04/2010 22:06

Well the twinset house thinks Clegg did well.

zisforzebra · 15/04/2010 22:06

NC was the only one who looked like he was genuinely smiling at the end there.

Spidermama · 15/04/2010 22:06

I don't watch ITV much.

This hasn't helped.

southeastastra · 15/04/2010 22:06

is anyone else knackered now? that wore me out

ginghamgiraffe · 15/04/2010 22:06

We're all in this together

monkeysavingexpertdotcom · 15/04/2010 22:05

"Ready Steady oh f**k" I think Spidermama. Specially if Dave gets in.

jonicomelately · 15/04/2010 22:05

PMSL at Kafka9

hogshead · 15/04/2010 22:05

go on audience be brave and dont applaud

TDiddy · 15/04/2010 22:05

Clegg should go on Facebook straight after this. He would clean up!

APassionateWoman · 15/04/2010 22:05

Closers...

Clegg - yeh, yeh, you're offering something different. Libs have been saying that in different ways for years. More substance, please. He's not the LD leader to make the breakthrough, sadly.

GB - got to the nitty gritty. Didn't need to dig at the Tories, though Lab's policies speak for themselves.

DC - On the defensive. Weak.Values over policy. same old Tory claptrap. How did Tory values help us out in the 80s, Dave?

hybred77 · 15/04/2010 22:05

I agree with Brolly and MP

TheHeathenOfSuburbia · 15/04/2010 22:05

spidermama, i think he was writing down the names as he went along. They were allowed to bring notes and a pen!

Spidermama · 15/04/2010 22:05

Hear Hear Morningpaper and Brolly about dragging in dead aquaintances and sick family anecdotes.

GB has risen above this.

Brollyflower · 15/04/2010 22:04

They are ALL making me cringe now.

"Hope over fear"
"X Factor"
memorising names

jonicomelately · 15/04/2010 22:04

How can DC say choose hope over fear. What about you describing my beloved country as 'Broken Britain'

Sabs1981 · 15/04/2010 22:04

ew DC staring at me!

Clarissimo · 15/04/2010 22:04

PMSL at has he done his a-levels yet great

Kafka9 · 15/04/2010 22:04

DC has won this one, the bookies were right!
