I don't watch telly anymore but from what I've heard over the past couple of years that's exactly what they're doing, trying to 'sensationalise' it. Wasn't there something the other week when farridge (sorry not going to do the European pronunciation) was on the other week and a bloke in the audience being a ukip plant?
Seems to be something on a weekly basis, which is a shame as it used to be a good sort of informed show
