I don’t think Kuenssberg fits the slot either, to be honest. Being totally brutal, I think I would have moved her off that slot after the first show, when Joe Lycett showed her up brilliantly. In another world I think it could and would have been Huw Edwards. Maybe when Laura inevitably defects to Global in 2025…

I’m indifferent to Kuenssberg but if you see the Joe Lycett thing as a problem that’s surely more a problem with the format than the host. Not sure how Huw Edwards would have handled it differently.

Well yes, Jon, both are problems in my eyes. The format is weak and padded-out, and Kuenssberg is not the best interviewer, who can’t control the discussion very well. The whole Lycett thing (whilst very very funny) had the air of a nervous supply teacher struggling to deal with an unruly class.
