As a question of format, I don't think it's a good idea to have the guest, particularly if they're a politician, present for the whole show. Natural politeness means that Nish & Coco are more likely to pull their punches a bit compared to if they can discuss an issue without the guest present. The format PSA uses is better, with an interview 'slot'. I'm not impressed with Thornberry anyway at the moment, given her position on the way the Govt have tried to alter the Public Order Bill using a Statutory Instrument, which she seemed to wilfully misunderstand and wouldn't back the Fatal Motion in the Lords, dismissing it as the Lords trying to alter the Bill. NO. The Lords were trying to PROTECT something Parliament had already told the Govt NOT to do.
