  1. I won too…. yay for me lol.

    2.15 million watched last year but it has to be closer to like 6-7 million in reality when you consider the amount of people in pubs, clubs, office boardrooms that all watch and dont get counetd. It would be great to know exactly how many but that would be impossible.
