have i got news for you
Have I Got News For You descended into a tense row over Mercer's alleged links to a bust financial firm.
The footy host took the hot seat on Friday's 'Have I Got News For You'.
This one split people right down the middle.
'Unless Ann Widdecombe has put off an entire gender, it's because they’ve said no.'
Host Jo Brand was praised for taking panellists to task over their comments.
'If you're constantly being harassed... that builds up and wears you down.'
'I know someone - I can’t say who - who went on it and they didn’t say a word.'
The handbag had a microphone in case it wanted to say anything.
