From: telly Category: TV Date: 11 October 2006 Time: 10:27 AM Review: lawson and sayle, two fat bastards. funny how sayle is so unfunny in real life, on tv. he was good in the 80s. jack dee was in the same interview slot and similarly taking himself amazingly seriously. don't they realise how uncharming it is, don't they care. sayle is a monster of self-regard, amusing when scathing about Ben elton, considering his own novel efforts to fall within the category of literature. he really answered every question as though history depended on it, and as though he was one of the great thinkers,contributors to global change, of all time. sad.
