I Need Volunteers for a Question Time “Interrupt Count” Tonight

I’ve invented a new method of measuring political discussion online.

This is very simple the loser of any discussion is the one who interrupts their co-interviewees the most.

I’m looking for a few volunteers to do an “Interrupt Count” on tonight’s Question Time programme.

I’m looking for volunteers to count the interruptions by each of the panellists:

  1. John Denham,
  2. Phillip Hammond,
  3. Vince Cable,
  4. David Starkey
  5. Claire Fox.

If you are interested, please leave a comment below, and your count there when it is done.

I want to have 2 figures for each panellist: interruptions and attempted interruptions.

Anyone who does a count then posts about it will be in this week’s Britblog Roundup, which I am editing.
