Evan Davis: Tits & Ass

Regular readers may know that Fagburn is quite the fan of Evan Davis - or "Tinsel Tits" as we understand his BBC colleagues call him.
We know not why...
Anyway, we like the way Evans's queeny giggling manner counters John Humphry's curt grumpiness on Radio 4's Today programme.
"Did it sound gay?" Evan asked The Times last year. "I don’t know what a gay Today programme would sound like. I hope it doesn’t sound gay. But does it sound not gay? I hope not. I mean, there is maybe the odd silly, slightly frivolous, campy sort of moment, and they more likely to come from me than perhaps from John.”
Mr Davis is such a big star in Radio 4 Land he's got his own show, too.
He must mean a lot to the BBC TV bods as well, as it's also broadcast on the BBC TV News channel.
Fagburn has just been listening in to the first in the new series.
It was Evan Davis asking people about economics and grown-up stuff, so to be honest Fagburn only understood bits of it.
But surely the name of the show is someone having a little giggle at Evan's expense?
The Bottom Line.

  1. I have read that he's called Tinsel Tits cos both his nips are pierced and he's not afraid to get them out in certain types of club that offer 'entertainment' for gentlemen who like gentlemen...
