I agree 100%.  And Bill just added a touch of weirdness to the whole show.

in all fairness Dave and Roddy do their fair share of posing too,  so did Bill, Asha and Angus do that quite a bit too

Sure - they are putting on a "Show" of course. But none of them come close to Hoekstra's ridiculousness. He is so good at it (and its not a good thing to be good at!) that he is almost his own caricature. I do enjoy his playing, just not a fan of his over-the-top hamminess.

I'll agree
