It's Saturday's newscast with three people who've been to make a field.
And somebody who's returned from their holidays, I'm delighted to see.
Yes, I'm back.
Thank you very much for having me back because so much happened.
You could easily give me a test to make sure I can even talk about the news.
But I went to Makefield and we're here with two experts on Makefield.
Luke Trill from the pollsters, more in common.
Great to be here.
And Joe Pike, Joe's been keeping me company a lot while you've been away, Paddy.
So don't introduce Joe like he's some kind of expert that has never been in the studio before.
I'm the understudy.
And we were in Makefield with Luke yesterday doing a focus group of different voters.
Now, we don't like cliches on Saturday's newscast, but Paddy, you went to the North West and something happened with a pie.
Yes, so Makerfield's between Manchester, Liverpool and Blackpool.
It's in the northwest of England.
And I was born in Surrey and I went to buy a pie.
But I was doing it at the express request of Makerfield local hero Lem Sissy, who gave me a tour.
Can I ask you a question?
Just asked, there was a customer went by, said, can I ask you a question?
