Have I Got News For You (Nick Hewer)

[Caribeing]

HIGNFY last night wasn't its usual sparkling self, Ian and Paul brilliant as ever but Nick Hewer was boring, tried to be witty but didn't make it!

[boxtops]

I enjoyed it - but NIck isn't spontaneous, he never has been!

[elliemay1]

And he's boring on Countdown as well.

[Prudie]

There have been some good presenters but none is the same as Angus Deayton - I can't even remember what cloud of shame he left under.

[Ken4155]

I have to agree. He's so far up his own jacksie he'd need a map and compass to get out.

[bibblebub]

He's amusing to a degree and it's usually the same act from with him every appearance. The funniest item he's been in was this clip from Would I Lie To You.

[ChillDoubt]

I enjoyed it too. As for Nick he was as dry as a nuns crutch, just how I like him when he's on HIGNFY.

[Ken4155]

Cocaine and prostitutes got Deyton the push.

[ChillDoubt]

Yes Ken, small beer when you consider what had been going on before him at BBC Centre.
Shame he isn't invited back for the odd guest spot.

[Caribeing]

Agree about Angus Deayton he was a brilliant host and his rapport with Ian and Paul was great, Some of the presenters now will never match him, not keen on Kirsty Young!

I think Lee Mack would be good, very quick like Deayton was.

[boxtops]

Are we not able to say C rotch, chill... :-)

[ummmm]

Didn't Deayton have an affair with Pauls wife?
