Hmm. I would actually prefer a Fair Turnabout - get someone up to put the
anti-RIP side of the case who can generally ride roughshod over the Paxman
in a similar manner;  by avoiding the cut-and-thrust of debate, we will
avoid confusing those that are used to seeing Paxman fail to make headway
against his guest and welcome a biased monologue occasionally interrupted by
inaffectual comments..... <grin>
