Leaders' Debate, BBC One
It's the final debate, and Dave shows his mettle
Thursday, 29 April 2010
Oh no, not them again. It was the third and final round for the three party leaders
Mamma mia! The last Leaders' Debate has come and gone, so what on earth are we going to do on Thursday evenings now? I was half expecting an announcement at the end of the show telling us that the Debates will be coming back for a new series in the autumn. Next Thursday of course is the election itself, which will be a straggly, bleary-eyed, long-drawn-out affair. How much nicer if it could be compressed into a crisp 90 minutes and then decided on a viewers' poll.
