Boris says awesome things...

When: Tonight (30th March 2009) Channel 4, 8pm

Dispatches, the current affairs investigative programme, is devoted entirely to Boris tonight. Rumours abound that the showing won’t be as pro-Boris as Boriswatch hoped – the byline “Do Boris’s ideas really stack up” doesn’t ooze confidance – but it should still be an interesting programme.

Not least because it plans to stir up the Guppygate controversy by airing the recording of Boris considering beating up a journalist for his friend…

Update 8.20pm: In fact, it couldn’t be more anti-Boris. Their process: Gather together Boris-detractors, film their complaints, air them…

Update 9:10pm: Can anyone say “hatchet job”? Write in to www.channel4.com/contact if you feel the need to complain…

Update: 9:20pm: Awesome twitterage on the programme (follow Boriswatch.com here). Favourite: “it’s like a 19 year old ranting 1st year journo student doing his 1st camera piece after writing for Socialist Worker”.

Update 9:30pm: Just sent my complaint in to Channel 4 – I suggest all Boriswatchers do the same: http://www.channel4.com/contact/ .

A very merry Christmas to all Boriswatch readers! We hope you have a fantastic day!

If you’ve forgotten to send a card to a loved one, help is at hand in the form of Boriscards. Send a Christmas Boriscard, and all will be forgiven…

P.S. We will leave you with perhaps our favourite video…
