Just heard the audio from Meat's acceptance speech and he was definitely under the influence of something; be it prescribed or otherwise there is no doubting it. He sounded slow, confused, and displayed none of the usual sharp-witted banter we've come to love. I hope he sorts himself out.
I wouldn't post this if I didn't believe it myself so take a listen to Q Radio online at this link
http://radioplayer.qthemusic.com/ and then choose the highlights show on the right hand side.
His bit appears around 10 minutes into the show.
