a piss-poor offering with Ann Widdecombe this week, only Danny Baker looked good in this show.
I'm no Tory, but always found William Hague a great host, who wasn't afraid to have the piss taken out of him

Personaly all ways thought Boris was the best of the bunch with Alexander Armstrong a close second. Not a huge fan of Angus Deaton but much like Mark Lemarr and never mind the Buzzcocks it will all be his show in my mind.

I rather enjoyed it. Widdecombe shaking her head in disgust whenever Lucy Porter said something "dirty"----penis and testicles. And once Merton lost his fear of the battle-axe, he had a great time.

Each presenter brings a different dynamic to the show. Some work well with the regulars, some (Gordon Ramsay) are fish out of water, and others (hello, Boris) just haven't a clue what's going on.

Boris Johnson is great, but the novelty would wear off; Alexander Armstrong is good; for me, I'd give the gig to Jack Dee.

Bruce Forsyth was tremendous when he hosted; even the panel were in tears.

I thought Widdecombe was ok at least she showed she has a sense of humour, Ronni Ancona was good the other week and much easier on the eye than Widde!love!

A once great show reduced to yet more 'sleb bollocks.

They should bring back Angus immediately. The guest presenters, mostly dire by comparrison, simply take too much focus away from the news items, which is where it should be.

I think Angus should come back, even if it's full of Merton taking the piss out of him. As for the other guest presenters: I agree that Hague & Brucy were good, but Boris is fantastic. I seriously have to wear a nappy when he's on that show. I want Boris to be the next PM!
