"I think we pitch it about right"


The Real Simon McCoy

A minor point, but it amused me and regular readers will hopefully appreciate it too. 

And if they don't, well, I think we've broadly landed in the right place

The BBC News Channel's much-appreciated Simon McCoy was on Samira Ahmed's Newswatch this week and was asked, "Are you in danger of letting your on-screen persona take over the news?", to which he replied, "I think we pitch it about right".

Alas, he wasn't being deadpan there, so that's another one for the collection.
