    Agreed. He is a bit of a pillock.

    Though I don’t dislike him as much as I did the previous Sports Editor, David Bond. Total waste of space. Mrs Keighley knows more about sport than him, and her knowledge of sport is limited to being able to identify Sir Alex, Arsene, Tiger Woods and Mo Farah. And asking how many cows Roger Federer has now acquired.

    Lord Reith must be turning in his grave.

    Sorry, after “consultation” she has asked me to add Lineker and Mourinho to the list. Though she appears to think that Klopp is Dutch.

    Still more knowledgeable than David Bond.

    Surely she could pick out Tom Walley in an identity parade.

    Boycott?

    McEnroe?

    Probably McEnroe.

    Boycott is “that Yorkshire chap”.

    Interesting that the investigating team has already ordered tail checks on all AW169 helicopters. Whilst they say it's "precautionary", this line says everything...

    "The incorrect installation of the TR servo-actuator, if not detected and corrected, depending on the flight condition, could possibly result in loss of control of the helicopter."

    A statue is a very good idea.
