This
little vignette by Jan Moir from the Daily Telegraph did make me laugh.
This week, like some Easter Island statue whirring into life,
Sir Trevor McDonald creaked back on to News At Ten, going head to head against
his old nemesis Huw Edwards on the BBC. "We're not in this to lose," said Sir
Trev. "We've beaten them before and we'll do it again," said Huw, as if we were
all watching a mercifully short version of Gladiator.
Sir Trevor's new screen partner is Julie Etchingham, who
looks as if she once starred in Friends, but apparently has a degree in
palaeontology. She must have; how else could she keep turning to look at an old
fossil with such rapt fascination?
