Tonight's televisual must-see: Would Like To Meet. Tonight the subject is a gay man, Richard Smith. "[Flirting expert Tracey] teaches him the fine art of gay cruising in London's Old Compton Street."

Being forced to watch myself interact in a social setting. Do I listen? Do I apologise too much? Talk too much? Too little?

Of course, how we behave in social situations can be very different.
