Thanks for the quick response.

I think I'm okay with sending stuff through the sender parameter, although I do 
agree it's a bit ugly.

Problem is, my didSelectRowAtIndexPath isn't getting called... :-( The delegate 
is set correctly, so I'm assuming iOS doesn't call it in the presence of 
segues? It IS calling prepareSegue...
