Watching Andrew Marr come up against the prince of Darkness this morning was a lesson to all political journalists when conducting a serious interview.
Marr was,for want of a better expression taken to the cleaners by the man who invented spin.
He missed several opportunities to score hits instead resorting to a diatribe of rumour and innuendo which Mandleson was easily able to brush aside.
To be sat opposite the interviewee being told,quite bluntly "right next question" must have been an excruciatingly awful experience for Marr who has lost his political bite since being propelled out of his political role at the Beeb and becoming 'mainstream.'
