Nick Clegg is the only one who seems to have worked out how to stare sincerely into the camera. It's like Brown and Cameron are hanging out in one corner, leaning towards each other, while he stands off on his own. However, the format keeps reminding me of Blind Date.

20:56 I note how the pair will interrupt each other, but not Clegg. Sign he's not important enough to correct, or that they're both desperate for an alliance?

20:58 I don't know about anyone else but personally I do want to know that if I'm ever arrested someone will at least have to fill out paperwork to say what the hell they were thinking. I'd expect it for an office disciplinary so I expect it for this. "More guys on the beat!" is awesome but some days you need the paperwork.

21:00 If you say *nobody* should be standing who is guilty, Mr Brown, I do hope you are pulling the labour whip from Every Single Guilty Labour MP.

21:05 And now the guy's "Mr Cameron!" is reminding me of "Mutiny on the Bounty". MR CHRISTIAN! MR CHRISTIAN!

Also, Cameron's little face just then at Clegg made me want to punch him on the nose.

21:11 Note to Cameron "following the children into school" sounds like a creepy guy carrying puppies. And everyone promises to abolish quangos. And they do. They just make more after.

21:17 Brown! Shoulders BACK, face FORWARD! I know you're trying to face down Cameron and the audience but you just look like a fidget-bottom.

21:20 Clegg, if by "children" you mean "including teenagers" I think you will find those in the truly poor families are either babysitting or working (even if only on a paper-round) after school or on Saturdays.

21:29 Mr Cameron, do not dirty Corus by even SPEAKING its name unless you promise -- PROMISE -- to fix it. Also, of COURSE everyone agrees cutting waste is awesome, you ass, but its like saying there would be no need to worry about the mortgage if you stopped losing change down the couch.

21:35 Note to Clegg, when you gaze soulfully at the camera, my brain inserts "And for just £2 a month, this fluffy litter of kittens could be taken care of.."

21:40 Okay, Clegg's little speech on it not being the Cold War impressed me.

Cameron's voice is scraping on my nerves now.

21:45 We love the NHS! \o/ Clegg really is impressing me now. If that's not sincerity, it's a better fake than t'other two.

22:05 Sorry Cameron, you fail the soulful look. Clegg running at 58% approval on C4. I think Lib Dems take this one.
