Of those episodes not yet repeated, the BBC INFAX catalogue lists all of them, implying that they do in fact exist in the BBC archives; the British Film Institute lists all except the Gulbenkian episode among its own holdings. -88.110.229.13 11:37, 26 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Straight Talk

edit

This does not seem to be a sustainable claim:

The programme format is currently used by publisher and broadcaster Andrew Neil on the Straight Talk programme on the BBC News Channel.

A sample programme can be viewed here. OK, we have the black drapes behind the subject and we do not see close-ups of Andrew Neil, but we do see Neil in three-quarter view long shot and two-ways. An influence is obvious, but not enough that the "programme format" is shared. Philip Cross (talk) 17:38, 3 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
