There are times when I'm glad Paxman's there, but his problem is he's not as clever as he thinks he is. (It was ever thus: notoriously as a student at St Catz at Cambridge he sat on the steps facing the court, put his head in his hands and moaned, 'Where are all the CLEVER people?') What really disappointed me was when, a few years ago, he claimed his standard approach to interviewing is to ask himself, 'Why is this person lying to me?' Now, that's just chronic scepticism mistaken for shrewdness. It'll pay off sometimes in a 'monkey at a typewriter' sort of way, but, really Jeremy, it's not big and it's not clever!
