I don't understand that personal comments toward Abi. Comment regarding her professional skills, fine, getting personal, you can do better than that.
As others have mentioned, directors will be telling her what guff to come up with, directors came up with the stupid #'s, is she going to say 'no - I'll do it my way' absolutely not, she probably appreciates her job.
It's easy to switch off for 2 seconds when she's talking if she's ruining the experience for you.
