Tom and Mary is the only actual consistent surprise. Emaline's happening like every other night, but SCC and Walter are pretty much standard at this point. Walter came and went a few times on the US side, but the UK has gotten it each night, and I believe so did AUS.

I will say in their defence that they're evidently a bit jetlagged at the minute. It was evident in Bristol, especially at the start, but they were flying by the end.
