- High hopes dashed
I was really looking forward to this and was sorely disappointed. It was like sitting in a pub “earwigging” on two blokes talking about their upcoming adventures. Giggling interviewer notwithstanding, this was an abject lesson in poor presentation and how to make a deeply interesting subject sound about as a thrilling as watching paint dry.
