THE VOTE BY RICK HAYNES
The caterpillars produced a magnificent one. Capturing the moment from cocoon to butterfly was video magic.
The spider commercial had been greatly condemned, as one of their presenters had bitten a camera cricket.
The Beetles, with backing vocals from the Bees, provided the entertainment.
What a buzz!

‘If we win, they eat us.’
