Tobias Gough (aka Hot Podium Guy), the No.10 sound engineer, has become a meme for setting up the lectern before major moments.
Notable appearances include:
- Theresa May’s resignation (2019)
- Boris Johnson’s resignation (2022)
- Liz Truss’s exit speech (2022)
- Rishi Sunak’s first address + 2024 election announcement
He’s the unofficial harbinger of big UK political news. What’s the latest at No 10?
