Su-man-nah

I was watching the election coverage on the BBC last night. During the wait for the result to start coming the presenters were trying to fill time with the usual waffle. A bit like sports commentators during a boring game.

Kaplinsky was wandering around giving us a 'behind-the-scenes' look at what the BBC team do on election night. She was walking among the techies blathering on about how busy they would be. She stopped next to one eager looking young chap who was obviously about to be called on to say a few words, his big moment on national TV.

"Here's Susannah, part of our techincal team, who'll be working hard all night to bring you the results as they happen. There'll be plenty of coffee drunk here tonight."

Susannah? That's a woman? Oh dear.

It was the short hair, manly glasses and very baggy t-shirt that fooled me. Luckily I'm not in the dating game anymore or I could be making some BIG mistakes.
