Eddie Mair's performance on Newsnight last night ...
... was one of the best things I've seen anyone achieve on TV for years. His obvious contempt for what had gone before was a sight to behold.

I hold Eddie in such high regard
Far and away the best presenter/journalist around, and has been for decades IMO

Wow.
That was far and away the most scathing performance I've ever seen.

It was Humphreys
that did the damage though. Dismantled his own DG live on Today. Today.
