What a pointless job. He doesn't actually know anything more than anybody else. Witchell should have been quietly led away by a senior producer to an empty studio whilst they pretended he was broadcasting live.

Then an Australian tourist turned round to me and said 'You're English and you don't know what's going on!?' to which I replied 'I may be English, but I live 200 miles from here and the Queen isn't something we keep an eye on a daily basis.' 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
