Needless to say, he ate it anyway |

 |
 |
| With
the view being obscured by several heads at the front of the benches, we
move into the North Stand for an elevated outlook |

 |
| With
nobody being allowed on the pitch during the interview, a new game is
invented - cheese baiting |

throws bits of cheddar from the back of the stand for Oaf to try and
catch in his mouth. Incredibly, he caught two pieces as well as
recieving a nasty blow to the eye |

Worcestershire wicket falls |
Hove
under floodlights from the top of the North Stand is a glorious sight |

| RMJ
fields infront of his adoring fans in the Cromwell Road End |
Monty
Panesar had a bloody great game, taking 2-13 |
 |
 |
| The
big screen denotes that Worcestershire are some way behind Sussex both
in runs and wickets - a fact that would see them smashed by 153 |
Not
content with queuing for the gents, Wright makes do with the disabled
