    He only had the one indiscretion, didn't he? A dalliance with the piglady? I'd say that's a pretty decent record over, what is it, getting on for 20 years?

    Well that's the only one we've heard about, but even if that is his only indiscretion, it's still at odds with the tone of much of the coverage of him, which borders on the hagiographic.

    The fact that he's put up with that self-absorbed, permanently pouting, stick insect of a wife for all these years and four children later
    might have something to do with it.

    My hatred for her is of Ramseyesque proportions, Burney.

    Oh, I agree. She's a ghastly waste of skin. However, nobody made him marry her, did they?

    Bear in mind, of course, that my ex who met him regularly was absolutely charmed by him, and the things she hated most in he world wre the stupid, the common, and footballers. Perhaps he has a similar effect on journalists.

    Give her, her dues, WES. She is hideous and talentless but did everything that she could to get as far as she could.

    Possibly so. He seems well-mannered, unassuming, kind and polite. And the fact that he's very good-looking probably doesn't hurt.

    I'm assuming that he doesn't have to say much or doesn't have much to say.... you know, if he keeps his mouth shut, he is more likely to get laid.

    Yes, there was never the suggestion that he was a great raconteur or anything.
