ITV Responds to CrocodilePiersgate

"Thank you for your email regarding Piers Morgan Life Stories.

Life Stories features a wide range of different interviewees, from Sir Richard Branson to Sheila Hancock and Sharon Osbourne. Gordon Brown is simply the latest in a long list of public figures who have been quizzed by Piers. This is an opportunity for viewers to gain a glimpse into the personal life of the Prime Minister and to bring a lively insight not just into politics but the human story behind the politics.

The election has not yet been called and ITV is not bound by the particular rules governing the pre-election period at this time. Nevertheless ITV, like all responsible broadcasters, observes due impartiality and balance across our output as a whole. We are developing ideas and are in discussion with other parties about potential programming."
So will Dave get an hour of prime time coverage one on one with a supporter or not?

TB reckons an hour of Dylan Jones doing a TV version of his book "
Cameron on Cameron
" would be about fair game. Like Piers and Gordon, they are mates and ideologically similar. Sorted.

Better yet, have Dave do a property programme with Kirsty Alsopp, then cooking in chez Cameron with Nigella Lawson.

Maybe an road trip with Jeremy Clarkson? Put Clarkson in a car and have him do a Top Gear race with Cameron on his bike.

I hope if he did that he would have the sense to say no personal questions regarding his family. We don't need it. But he's handled his family problems with dignity.

Matthew D'Anconservative should do it.

So, it is a political interview.
