Those who still listen to the News Quiz on the steam wireless will know that it’s a sort of club for softy lefty comics, who have never got over losing Mrs. Thatcher as prime minister and a target for their bile. But connoisseurs will know that the show is also a source of true comic brilliance. Such as the remark by Andy Hamilton, who deserves at least a knighthood for his services to making the nation laugh.
He announced that he was waiting for the real story of the miners trapped in Chile to come out; like, the 33 were originally 37 but they had to eat 4 of them. Priceless!
