Paxman To Interview Morris On Newsnight This Thursday Posted Tue Jul 31 02:16:39 BST 2001 by 'Someone High-up In Television'

That's more or less what I read (glanced) in a BBC log-book earlier tonight. Thought you might be interested.

Isn't this one of the seven signs in the book of Revelations? Truly, the apocalypse is upon us.


(Though, since Newsnight - like that bloke on 'The Wright Stuff' - pretty much acknowledged yesterday that they were one of the targets, and that they deserved it, I can actually believe they'd want to do such an interview. I'd be surprised if Morris agreed though.)

The Paxman and the anti-Paxman coming together? Won't this trigger some sort of explosion? Help me here, science people...

a scientist speaks:
when paxman and anti-paxman collide they annihilate each other creating a large amount of electromagnetic enery, manifested as a large ball of light.

seriously if this were true it would be the biggest television event of the new millennium, for this forum anyways. unfortunatly it sounds like bullshit.

Video footage of this will subsequently become the new opening graphic for 'Newsnight'.

The light itself will be suspended in mid-air over middle-England, and switched on at night. This will ensure paedophiles cannot make use of darkness to prey on our vulnerable children (or go late-night shopping at Tescos).

Though this does bring to light a concern, why is every poor sod ever associated with Morris, having to defend his work, but he isn't. Mystique's all well and lovely, but perhaps he now has a duty to those people to bring all this nonsense to an end with a public response of his own. If you make a programme like that, maybe it's wrong to fuck off to the South of France and leave your mates in the firing line.

True or not, the mere idea has got me all hard, probably for the rest of the week.

I wonder how he'll style his hair. The slickback look is scary and the Tassletine look is foppish. I wonder if there's a middle ground.

christ on a bike. i'll believe that when i see it.

did anyone see last night's Newsnight, when Liz MacKean was standing in the studio, in front of 3 screens with her face on them all, talking about how the media regards itself as the self important harbinger of bad news. very knowing in joke i thought.

Will Self called the new "irregulatory" body "ofcon" was also very funny.

Will it go out against the next ep of Brass Eye? Indeed, is it the next ep of Brass Eye?

"Jeremy, Jeremy, Jeremy. The programme that you've seen. Have you seen the programme?"

"Er, the programme has been seen..."

"Have you?" etc etc

This is such bollocks isn't it?
