I have never understood why politicians would wish to partake in this programme knowing that they are going to be slagged off at some point in the show!

[@DavidHoldenWoodturning]

Money.

[@showmoke]

@@DavidHoldenWoodturning - yes, that did cross my mind. But it’s not a lot for getting totally humiliated in public. A few grand at the most. I think one of the ex-politicians actually said how much he was getting for doing the show and I’m pretty sure that he said it was £900, but that was quite a few years ago now, so it must have gone up since then!

[@vaska00762]

Some are able to go on and establish they can take it, but also have the wit to give it back a bit. Biggest example I can think of was Charles Kennedy - definitely a highlight was when he encouraged to admit he was right about the Iraq War.

Delusional arrogance perhaps.

[@gospelofrye6881]

Conrad Black is awesome, in the context of proper old-school evil. His physical look. His astonishingly perfect Canadian accent. Like if someone said to you "what is the difference between an American and a Canadian accent?" all you need to do is play a clip of Conrad Black speaking. I love real people who if you wrote them in a Creative Writing 101 class your professor would say "hmn, okay but a bit obvious don't you think? I mean 'Conrad Black' really?"

I almost started to feel sorry [no I didn't] for Piers Morgan, sandwiched between Ian Hislop and his own team player Clive Anderson.

Mind you, looking at their relatively youthful faces, it was a simpler time.

Paula Yates: career groupie who couldn't handle her smack.

[@MorbidDoll]

The Paula Yates episode makes for an incredibly uncomfortable watch now, a group of men bullying her led by Ian, nothing iconic about that.

[@EdwardLindon]

Not really. She was whiny, passive-aggressive, entitled, vacuous and not especially talented. The barracking was about her hypocritical attempts at self-promotion and simultaneous loud demands for privacy. I could never see why she was a celebrity.

[@janefrancis2321]

She was a very insecure woman, largely due to her bizarre childhood, featuring lung, duplicitous and abusive parenting, who thought the only thing she had to offer was how she looked. In fact she was highly intelligent and a loving and supportive mother. Bob Geldof, who is no slouch, thought the world of her, even after she had left him, for someone who did not deserve her. She did not really value herself. And I agree, it is a sad spectacle, and I hope that if they watched it now, they would all feel very uncomfortable.

Given their nature they aren't iconic moments. I'm sick of that word being used to describe anything that's been on TV. Try memorable instead of iconic. For your homework consult a dictionary for the meaning of iconic and then get a thesaurus.

Louise Mensch and the nonsensical argument that unless you live in a tree and wipe your backside with leaves you can't criticize capitalism. Hell, even if you're an "uber" capitalist you can criticize capitalism. It'll make a hypocrite of you, but that's immaterial to your argument. It's a logical fallacy, namely tu quoque.

The _real_ elephant in the room wasn’t that Neville was commentating in Qatar, Dear Ian, but it was the fact that the country with the appalling human rights has a trade totaling 8 billion pounds with the UK. As a regular viewer of HIGNFY I can assure everyone that they have never picked on that nor called for the trade to end. The World Cup was just an easy target and the guests took a cheap shot. Go after the big boys why don’t ya? But the Alastair Campbell part was fantastic…
