Love him.
Just, love him

So pleased to know he'll be back soon.
I wish we'd see more of him on the show.

Maybe they could expand his role and allow him to ride beside the teams and taunt them.

Is that a Gucci shirt Phil's wearing? This could easily be the cover of Vogue Hommes. He rules!!!

He does indeed.

Phil will be on Regis & Kelly tomorrow (Thursday), if you want your Phil fix early.

YAY!

I am SO there.

He was just interviewed on my local news channel at noon. The anchor lady called him "Paul". Phil said he likes teams that have some personal issues, and aren't terribly well-adjusted with each other, so that eliminates a lot of hopefuls on the show. He's so funny. I'm SO looking forward to the show again tomorrow!
