I was slightly taken by surprise to see one of three special Saturday editions of "Newsnight Saturday" now on BBC TWO. If the EPG is correct, this particular edition will also include "a peer under the bonnet of Peter Snow's election graphics machine"...

Yippee! Newsnight 6 days a week.
Although Im not sure it can be classed at "Night" at 5, can it?
Anyway the weather is no more and Peter's map is just state of the art, or is that just art.
Does anyone else think BBC 2 should have a more "prime-time" in-depth news bulletin, perhaps Newsday during the afternoon ?

I think that it would be good to keep the Saturday version at 5.30 - but rebrand it as Newsweek - looking back on the events of the week, once the election is out of the way.

Well it wasn't in 2001, so why should it be now?

Apparently the Newsnight Bullshít Detector kicked in in the middle of a group discussion, booting Margaret Beckett out of the discussion temporarily and replacing her with colour bars and "BBC NEWSROOM NOTTINGHAM" - a more intelligent display than anything she had offered up to that point.

Do you not remember that they did this during the last election... except that it was for 1 hour insted of 30mins...

Could they possibly have found any worse example of a student house than this group of pillocks?

It is utterly painful.

Oh, oh what a classic.

"Which party is fielding the most ethnic minority candidates?"

Er.... UKIP?

Not a bad finish from Paxman. "BBC Parliament. No I've never heard of it either"
