My two great treats in life are baked beans and vanilla ice-cream.
From Jonathan Dimbleby
Food is about communal togetherness. Our family does sit at the table. I think it's a great tragedy if a family doesn't have a table, as there is such an atmosphere of good will and warmth when we have eight people sitting around it.
I ought to rejoice in the fact that our principal rival has died, but I don't.
The long, forensic interview really matters.
You have to be damn certain you're putting something better in its place.
Programme names have been changed, and we have Andrew Neil saying he won't be using long words.
Not every programme dealing with issues of global significance has to be fronted by last week's winner of Have I Got News For You-but I suppose you might be wrong.
I honestly believe that TV generally is obsessed with the ratings battle to the point of cutting its own throat.
The BBC produces wonderful programmes; it also produces a load of old rubbish.
That test should not be about ratings. What should weigh is the knowledge that a public broadcaster delivers programmes that matter.
