Yeah, I notice that they didn't really plan out the pane in advance; I mean Martin new what he wanted to do, he's done public speaking events before and can chat up all sorts of things, but it looked ad hoc and at the last minute. I suspect this is due to those cast and crew membres who had to leave at the last minute.
