Stephen Mulhern on Rolling In It
According to some fans, Stephen is prone to reading out questions ‘too slowly’.
This led to comparisons between him and Bradley Walsh, host of The Chase.
Stephen would never survive The Chase with how slow he asks them!
Several people reckoned Bradley is much swifter at reading out what is front of him, especially in the final round.
