Give Me Ten Seconds
by John Sergeant
John Sergeant is ITN's Political Editor and before that spent 30 years at the BBC, latterly as the corporation's Chief Political Correspondent. This memoir takes the reader from his rather curious childhood, as the son of decidedly eccentric parents, to his flirtation with show business as part of the 60s satire boom - he starred in revue with Alan Bennett - and his early years in journalism on the Liverpool Post to his 30 years at the BBC. Memorably handbagged by Margaret Thatcher on the steps of the Paris embassy as she lost the leadership contest, and the man to whom Ron Davis confessed his midnight perambulations on Clapham Common, Sergeant has been on the spot in many of the major news stories of the latter part of the 20th century. His mordant wit, keen sense of the absurd and powers of analysis pervade the book.
