Chivalry, Gadgetry and a musical tribute to The Man Who Brought You Superglue...

On the Late Show tonight

From The Institute For The Blindingly Obvious:
Men are more likely to ignore directions given by their satellite navigation systems than women, a survey has found, confirming the old stereotype that men hate asking for directions.

So we want to know, who controls the gadgets in your house? 
The boys or the girls?


Also 
More than half of British women pay for themselves on a first date, even though men still want to pay. 
An online poll found that 58 percent of women expect to split the bill on a first date, double the proportion of men (29 percent).

But what we want to know is - is chivalry dead?
What the most (and least) chivalrous deed in Yorkshire?

And finally

Dr Harry Coover, the Super Glue inventor has died at the age of 94. Dr Coover made the discovery in 1942 but unfortunately he did not realise its commercial potential. 

So tonight's Situation Soundtrack is a tribute to The Man Who Brought You Superglue...
