Brilliant. Very funny - but I don't think it would be half as amusing if Dom wasn't doing it. His delivery was hilarious.

I agree.

Also, without Dom, this would be dire!

I suppose it's not meant to be STORYFix ... but ofcourse it is Dom that makes it ....

Saw this on news 24 (about 8.50pm) while in the pub (so no sound, or idea what was going on!)
