Respect candidate Geroge Galloway featured as today's Ballot Box Jury guest and from the start was very apprehensive about the whole thing.
The interview began with someone asking questions from Glasgow but the sound failed and so George started a rant about how ITN have dredged a short clip accussing him of being a Sadaam sympathiser!
He totally disagreed with this and said he has answered this question 500 times. He wanted to swiftly move on.....
A woman from Scotland asked a question to George and he replied that his party wasn't even standing in Scotland and so accused ITN of not being able to find any suitable guest to ask questions from his area and accussed her of being a set-up to fire hostile questions at him.
Nicholas Owen and Katie Derham tried to continue with the interview and said that all questions they have recieved were along a similar vein when George said that they were also set-up and that he wouldn't be dealing with ITN ever again in the future. He stated that when his party wins he wont give any interviews to ITN.
The camera then cut to a close shot of Nic and Katie whilst George stormed out of the studio.
I hope ITV News Channel feature this great piece of tv many times throughout the day - its classic!
Please feel free to add any more detail or to correct any details that I may have got muddled with!
