Question Time

[Henry_17]

Double D just mentioned that next week's show will be in "South London". The website is even cagier in divulging details, stating only "London".

Anyone know where this is likely to be?

[malumbu]

It will make me very angry. I managed to not watch it tonight.

[Alan Medic]

What are you angry about malumbu?

I can't remember where it was the last time it was in South London, though I do remember someone reporting here that the panel were later found eating somewhere in the Dulwich area. Someone will probably find the thread or even remember.

Good, there will be some proper discipline for a change. Harris Peckham has a zero tolerence policy for misbehaving pupils, will be spot on for the QT panel.

They will need some rabid people as well as liberals, a few on this site come to mind!

Oy. Liberals are people too.

Apologies, my use of English is not good due to the EU. It will be better when we leave. We will also start brewing proper English beer again like Double Diamond and Red Barrel which sadly Brussels outlawed due to the lack of diamondsbarrels in the beer. A good topic of conversation when I bump into Nige again at a Westminster pub

[Jah Lush]

But we do. It's called keg beer.

[Passiflora]

On tonight.

[Otta]

Tim Farron was good.

Unless he's migrated to the States by then.

I hate this programme, it attracts extreme guardianista liberal elitists for the most part, and a handful of right wing nationalist fanatics on the other. There's no sensible middle ground, and the biased panel try to 'out do-gooder' each other, it's painful to watch. Time the BBC retired this show.

Don't they boast about how representative the audience is.

It's not at it's best however - Robin Day - he was a presenter :)

[jaywalker]

They do seem to have a problem with the chair.

But for me the truly dire aspect of this programme (as with the appalling Newsnight) is that it makes a pretence of serious discussion. Yet the format only allows soundbites. So we get people on it who are willing to give them.

Can you imagine a serious thinker participating in this programme? How could they even begin to construct an argument in the slots available?

The BBC is supposed to provide public service: in current affairs it has long since stopped even trying in the concern for 'audience'.

[Alan Medic]

I like the programme. I must be a lightweight.

[uncleglen]

Since it moved up North- the BBC has got more lefty
