Yeah, I thought that was weird. I suppose there's a slim (OK, anorexic) chance that that's how he spells it.

The Irish spelling is Micheál so maybe he's just (carelessly) lost the fada.

I suppose that since he is Welsh, it might be a Welsh variant spelling. They didn't seem to make a song and dance about it anyway, so why should we care how he spells his name.

I need to get it right for the recap tomorrow!! It is important!

Also, can't believe there's been no comment on Jeff's closing patter with Rachel :shock:

Maybe people want to keep it to themselves, Jon.

Even though this a forum where people can speak about things on the show, there might be some things that people just don't want to talk about.

It isn't.

It's not how he spells his name that's the issue; it's how other people spell it when referring to him, which I for one care about as a matter of simple courtesy, particularly if he makes it to Friday's show* and I have to namecheck him in the recap.

* Yeah, yeah, unlikely I know, but it's the principle of the thing.

Twas pretty funny. I've missed most of the recent shows (and 4od doesn't work in Ireland) so maybe it's a new thing, but is that the first time Rachel's had a joke prepared to throw back at Jeff?

I (not James) wasn't talking about the introductions, I meant Jeff's "Rachel, would you like to spend a couple of hours on my vessel after the show?" (quoted from memory) Jeff didn't seem to realise what that sounded like to her :)

No, i got that, and surely he (Jeff!) did! He did say if you're feeling nautical in fairness! Twas a brilliant closer though and you're right it deserved a mention. Also, there has been the odd moment since they started where i thought Jeff's closers have been a little too heavy on the sleaze and a little too light on the humour, where as this one was as blatantly sleazy as he has been, yet it was so funny it didn't matter.

Begs the question, does Jeff/do the team hide these obviously pre planned jokes from Rachel? I mean, she had her deck head one prepared i assume. I like the idea that Damian and co are getting into the Rachel/Jeff banter groove and that Jeff maybe wasn't expecting to be called a deck head and Rachel wasn't expected to be invited onto his vessel at the end of the show. If this is the case then we can hopefully expect more of this. Both moments were two of the funniest so far this series. Up there with Tim Vine's punchline anecdote which i thought was excellent myself!

So, anyway, has Rachel had a joke prepared for Jeff before or was this a first?
