Sometimes he's quite genuinely funny (often unintentional as well). Other times he's just an arrogant twat - twice I've seem him force an interviewee walk out (George Galloway and Martin McGuiness) because he asked them a question and when he didn't receive the answer he wanted, he asked the same question again, and then again, and again... and then they walked off!
