While I agree with the "it's for Joe Public" type comments, I do wish that the BBC didn't assume we're all morons.

'Airport Live' is a great idea for a programme, but I don't see why we have to be subjected to the likes of Kate Humble, someone from Watchdog and a child by the name of Dallas during such a programme.

They are all totally out of their depth and it shows.

I felt embarrassed to watch Kate trying to think of things to say whilst interviewing the staff in the tower, before making lame jokes and daft comments. Yes, she may have been a last minute replacement but was no one else available ?

I know us licence fee payers are supposed to be impressed by "The One Show" and think that "Snog, Marry, Avoid" and "The Call Centre" are gripping telly, but some of us can cope with something a little bit more involved.

I've only seen the first two so far (the 2nd being a repeat of the first pretty much), but I was expecting something much better than this.

Joe Public has spoken
