I donât think itâs immature, this sort of thing always brings out the smutty schoolboy in all of us if weâre honest, a bit like when someone does a really loud fart. You canât not laugh, well i canât anyway! Funny is funny. My personal Paxman favourite is his interview with Silvio Berlusconi during his last week on Newsnight, when he was âdemob happyâ. I may have posted the clip before but itâs worth doing it again. Possibly the best question ever posed by a journalist!
Very close between Naughtie and Marr for me. I heard the former live, and almost drove off the road. The fact that Hunt was, at the time, the culture secretary made it a beautifully obvious misspeak, and you can just imagine Naughtie coaching himself before he made the announcement - âItâs Jeremy Hunt, the Culture Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, the Culture SecretaryâŠâ but then producing that lovely metathesis. And then compounding it with the fake coughing fit. Magnificent.
Great though it was, though, Marr is right up there too. His faux pas aired (live as well, natch) on the same morning, so Marr had time to prepare himself. And yet, and yet - yes, it just slipped out. But for Marr and his guests it could all be seen as a bit of a laugh - Naughtie didnât have that luxury.
So, for me, Naughtie pips it.
BRANSON OFFERED BAILOUT!..
Sir Richard Branson has warned that airline Virgin Atlantic needs government support to survive.
In response the Treasury have offered him back âevery single penny that he has paid in UK tax for the past 14 years.â
Chancellor Rishi Sunak described it as an âunprecedented offerâ but said that he cannot extend it to others as âto do so would cost the government money they can ill affordâ.
Asked how much the offer to Branson would cost the UK taxpayer, Mr Sunak said he hasnât yet calculated it exactly but believes it to be âin the region of fuck all.â
Youâre all wrong and that video is shit because it missed the best one out.
Nicky Campbell introducing somebody from the West Kent Hunt. Not only did he get it wrong, but then later in the program he mentioned what had happened earlier and did it again!
So take that.
Hunts!
I personally liked the Clegg one. No recognition. Just powers through.
Total fucking pro of a cunt.
You are reaping what you sowed
I heard the Naughtie one live too, and it triggered a fit of the giggles worthy of Finbarr Saunders.
Little bastard
Owned!
