i like the bit where the man from the control centre quickly changes channel to try and predict how much power is needed when eastenders finishes, its nice to know pat buchers face can suddenly switch on a whole power plant to generate power for the nations kettles!

Must admit...I raised an eye at that too......seemed quite a posh high end gaff though with all those stair lights an all.

Incidentally, on Lennys' point on stair lights, does anyone know anything about wiring them up, cost etc, of an average house, I've heard about them but never seen them anywhere.
