Buzz

Anyone seen how Ian Katz's pants are hanging ?  Newsnight seems to be turning into a current affairs version of Britain's Got Talent.

Last week we had Yalda Hakim, Afghan-born, Australian-educated BBC World News presenter in the big chair. Rod Liddle wasn't convinced. His Spectator blog reminds you why Rod's not really BBC material anymore.

This Friday Ian tries out rookie Andrew Neil (who celebrates his 65th birthday today). It's been done before, 12 years ago. What will Rod say ? Will anyone press the Golden Buzzer ?
