Just months after being released from prison, having served a three-year sentence for defrauding investors and obstructing the course of justice, disgraced former Daily Telegraph owner Conrad Black is one of the guests on tonight's 'Have I Got News for You' on BBC1 at 9.00 pm.
With ex-con Conrad and McGoohan-fan Paul Merton on the same programme, a Prisoner reference may prove too hard to resist for host Alexander Armstrong.
The best bits of the show, recorded over 2 hours, make the tv screen tonight.
An extended version of extracts from the recording follows next week on BBC1 on Monday 29th October. Times vary according to region (two examples: England 10.35 pm, Wales 11.05 pm).

Really, Roger?
I did hear something about it having been arranged.
Something to do with the "headlines" round, allegedly.
;-)
There may be increased incandescence visible in the area of Ipswich too.
What a night!
