Conrad Black & Adam Boulton

pavb2

This interview today on Sky was pure entertainment, loads of eye rolling asks Boulton are you listening to me, what his name is, you don't know what your talking about, stop being a jack ass.

1.22 2.55 5.32 & 5.38

It's like the bully being bullied.


I know the guys got a book to sell but I'd say he's like this all the time, one feisty individual.

A dismissive attitude towards Boulton is fine by me. Loved the bit where Black asked him 'what's your name again?'

Dangerous Man

Good stuff.

I think any interviewer would give him a wide berth think Tubs would call in sick. He did the same to Paxman by all accounts. Anyhow ratings for Have I got News For You should go through the roof

Rascasse

He also got rather feisty with Paxman last night. Highlights include him calling Paxman a "priggish, gullible British fool". I can't wait to see him on HIGNFY on Friday.

Skip the first 4 mins.

Never heard of either of them.

I think it was during his trial, when he was asked why he flew on Concorde so often, as opposed to normal trans Atlantic airliners, he apparently answered:

"My wife doesn't like using public transport"


.

Boulton is a cretin.

Black is a coork though.

Are you allergic to Google or do you just like looking at threads of which you know nothing about?

Looking at threads I know nothing about, in my case anyway. They don't sound very interesting either, so I might skip Google and stick with the facetious posts.

Probably why I never heard of them seeing as I don't watch Sky or read newspapers.

Wow, what a formidable man. Whatever about the allegations he's denying, he's a ****ing impressive orator. I think I might have to check out his book.

At 10.34, Paxman says, "So if I understand you correctly, you're a man... troduced?" What's that last word that's said there? If anyone knows I'd be very grateful if you'd share it...

Liar.:p troduced is "done wrong to or done down by false allegations". BTW, I like Conrad Black, he's got a gob on him and is not afraid to use it. If you look into the case against him, it was mostly his gob making him enemies that was at the root of it, he couldn't hold a candle to our own home-bred white collar jockeys.

Traduced.

That female journalist with the triple barreled name(it escapes me just now) is always cheerleading yer man Black in the Sindo.Him and his wife both sound like repellant snobs,just up the Sunday Independants St.
Edit:Her name just came to me now,Ruth Dudley Edwards.

God it was great to see that shiny little sh*t Bolton so absolutely put in the stupid corner.

Pure class. Well done Black.

traduced
past participle, past tense of tra·duce

Verb:
Speak badly of or tell lies about (someone) so as to damage their reputation.

Amalgam

During the Paxman interview\exchange with Conrad Black, I couldn't stop thinking of Jeffrey Lebowski (David Huddleston), from The Big Lebowski. Same accent and self assured, explosive, arrogance.
