Or does anybody else find that someone can be sitting in the chair after being on the show for a couple of weeks and you can't remember them at all? There are of course exceptions like Morris, Pat, Lucy etc because they stood out for whatever reason during their time on the wings.

Yes I find that too. It's not a case of remembering them, but more of just not noticing them at all.

ummm i know what you mean, but if i look back at the archives i can pretty much visualise all the players, even the ones who aren't particularly interesting...i can even remember where abouts they were standing...but i may just be a special case!

Yes, especially those contestants who do not have much interaction with Noel before they sit in the hotseat.
