First viewed : 30 March 1993
With the success of Ian Hislop on Have I Got News For You , Private Eye had its "Bore of the Year " Awards show broadcast with Angus Deayton as host. It was a good test of how seriously people took themselves as to whether they turned up to receive their somewhat arbitrary award based on 1992's events. Linford Christie was there to receive the Most Unnecessary Sex on TV" award for his loose-fiiting jockstrap as was actor Norman Lumsden because Yellow Pages' J R Hartley commercial won Most Irritating ad. There was no sign of Neil Kinnock , winner of the "Worst Prediction of the Year" award for his "We're alright !" celebrations but Ken Livingstone turned up to accept it on his behalf. Antonia de Sancha did turn up but then did a runner after belatedly realising that they weren't going to treat the struggling actress who slept with David Mellor respectfully.
