Personally, I'm sick of the way our modern politicians involve themselves in this kind of salacious entertainment. Answering questions about the mile high club? Are they so desperate that they will now accept this 'grilling' from a judge on Britain's got Talent?

Call me a fuddy duddy but is it really too much to ask nowadays for Prime Ministers to act ministerially?

well he gets such a bad press normally, and generally comes across as a poor communicator I thought it was good to see him as a more normal person. Missed the question you're referring to, but I did see him talk about his child that died. A short part of the overall interview, which he in no way 'milked' - but to read the pre showing press, you would have thought it was all he talked about. The press manipulates things in such a way, that I think he has to take all opportunities to let people see the person he is.
