Television and radio broadcaster Richard Bacon was among the panellists on this week's episode of Question Time. The presenter shot to fame - and infamy - on L!ve TV and Blue Peter in the 90s and has gone on to have a hugely successful career in TV and radio.
Viewers saw him making an appearance on Question Time on Thursday (September 29) alongside Karan Bilimoria, Chancellor of the University of Birmingham, MPs Paul Scully and Bridget Phillipson, and journalist Anne McElvoy. Presenter Fiona Bruce said it followed "one of the most extraordinary weeks I can remember in politics".
The panel was due to discuss the turmoil created by Kwasi Kwarteng's mini budget. Both the Chancellor and Prime Minister Liz Truss have insisted their £45 billion package of tax cuts is the “right plan” to get the economy moving despite chaos on the financial markets and fears of rocketing mortgage bills.
