"Do the panel think that Michael Howard should apologise in the light of the Hutton enquiry's exoneration of the Prime Minister?"

It's going to happen...

judge dreddd

do the panel pay the blindest bit of notice to the opinions of ordinary folk ?

Slippery PD

Well it doesnt matter really.  Coz if you choose something that isnt topical it wont get on and if you choose something thats topical, they all expect someone to ask that question.

Bollocks really

Question Time was filmed at my Uni once (94/95). My buddies got on the front row, and being trouble-making students clapped and hollered enthusiastically at everything. The rest of us were watching in the bar creaming ourselves every time we caught a glimspe of them nodding manically and shouting "Hear, hear", though I doubt anyone else noticed whatsoever.

My Gran was on Question Time back in about 1996, and asked a question about military equipment provision, drawing on her own experiences as an ambulance driver.  The Armed Forces Minister, Nicholas Soames, actually took the trouble to write to her and thank her for her contribution: particularly remarkable as she was criticising him!  So I guess they listen sometimes.

years and years ago a questionnaire asked something, the minister responded and they said that was not so....it was something like they worked in the area they were asking about

dont remember the specifics but it was funny :)

Ask them why the goverment (MOD) sees fit to allow their friends at BAE to cost the taxpayer ?3 billion in budget overspending. Obviously from the same school of swindling as the Scottish parliament building folk.

Dribbles, may i remind you that I have the monopoly on typing "..." after everything.

Krusty - dont pin yer hopes on being on pal.... I applied for tickets for the Tamworth filming last year along with about 10 people I knew who were passionate abou their local politics, and did we get on? did we fuck.

What the BBC tend to do with QT nowadays is have a list of audicence members who live near the town they are filming in who match the 'demographic' for the guests - and then they ship 'em in  - be it sympathisers of a certain political belief or just the nutters they have from time to time.

I know this cos after we didnt get on, and watched as a load of people who didnt even SOUND like they were from tamworth were on, I called to complain and a very helpful researcher told me the above is quite common. Its not 'loading' the audice per se; they justify it by stating that 'they have a long waiting list'.

so if you get on, make sure you wear something we can recognise you by.

Mr C

Ask them where the hell has Saddam Hussein gone.
No really, does anyone know what's happened to him?

Oh yeah, and ask them when Iraqis are going to have their country back.

And why their vocabulary doesn't contain the simple words "Yes" and "No".

And you could ask them when Half-Life 2 is coming out, but that might be a little off topic.

Krusty, off-topic?  

It'd never happen..................
