Title: Radio 4s Any Questions

Just spent the evening at Lichfield Cathedral watching Any Questions.

Did you know this programme has been going for over 60 years?

I certainly remember it from my childhood.  Freddy Grisewood was the chairman then.

We just listened to the Litchfield broadcast.  How clumsy and obtrusive Jonathan Dimbleby is.  I wonder why they bother with panellists.  They could just have Dimbleby being pompous and dogmatic for 50 minutes.

He can be a bit that way.David Jacobs was my fave.

During the warm up they were saying it has a new production team based in Bristol.They asked did people want the humorous questions stopped and what would they feel about a panel that did not include a politician?

Hope they don't change the format.
