I'd like to echo the sentiments already expressed.
I also never realised how long this programme had been running. And that has to be a measure of how successful it has been as a format. Jeremy Paxman has evolved from dark-haired belligerent post-graduate to greying belligerent geezer in the interim. In a way, he has become as much an institution as Patrick Moore and 'The Sky At Night'. That is not to diminish the other presenters, but they follow the footsteps he set down in argumentative confrontation. Kirsty Warke does well, but needs a harder edge.
It's a great end to the day's news, with excellent research and detailed infill to the stories being headlined.
Definitely top-drawer.
