Thirty Years of Question Time

This seems to be a year of Thirtieth anniversaries this year. My brother's thirtieth, thirtieth anniversary of Margaret Thatcher being elected Prime Minister (shudder), thirty years since one of my favourite TV detective series, Shoestring, first came on the air.

But aside from the triumphs and tragedies of 1979 that spring to mind, there is one anniversary I'd almost forgotten about and that is that it is now thirty years since BBC Question Time started and here are some of the more light hearted highlights of the series over the past thirty years.

BTW The clips shown after two minutes and ten seconds had best be seen after the Watershed ;-)
