There was also a brief clip from 'Swallows and Amazons Forever'
(i.e. Coot Club or The Big Six) wrongly captioned as
'Swallows and Amazons'.

I'd have thought Kirsty Wark would have known better even if her
scriptwriters didn't. My estimation of her goes down. Surely
Paxman would have known if he'd been on duty.

The item was about a native of Norfolk who had written a letter
to the newspaper attacking the people of the area as dull,
inbred, unfriendly, none too bright etc. They put her in a
discussion with Malcolm Bradbury who was meant to give a
contrasting view but didn't wholly disagree with her.
