Jenkyns Accuses BBC After Awkward Exchange

Dame Andrea Jenkyns expressed dissatisfaction with the BBC's portrayal of her on 'Have I Got News For You,' claiming she was unfairly booed by the audience and that her best lines were edited out. During the show, she supported former Prime Minister Boris Johnson, arguing that he could make a political comeback, which drew groans from the audience. Jenkyns accused the producers of selecting a biased audience, prompting a sharp rebuke from panellist Ian Hislop, who dismissed her claim as baseless. Hislop's retort, 'it's just b*****ks,' has garnered praise from viewers, reinforcing his reputation as a national treasure. Jenkyns, who lost her parliamentary seat earlier this year, defended her support for Johnson despite the controversies surrounding his leadership. The exchange highlighted the ongoing tensions in British political discourse, especially regarding Johnson's legacy.
