    You can tell that James is a consummate professional as in his attention to detail he has made sure he put the same creases into his shirt 2 weeks later. Both he and his continuity crew need medals.

    Why is the volume difference so high between the parts where the music is at the forefront, and when it is in the background while the guys are talking? I keep having to turn up the volume when they're talking, then have to turn it down to half strength again whenever it's just music (like at the very end, for example), because it's way too loud. Like, "Sweet bejesus! *scrambles in panic to lower the volume*" type of loud.
