THE TIME IS NOW. THE PLACE IS, er, HERE...
John Stapleton. What a guy. Whether he's grilling a Home Office spokesman following a round of savage and unprecedented benefit cuts, or conducting some vacuous audience based discussion into, oh, I don't know, into whether it's good idea or not to let kids play with hungry crocodiles, or something, there's surely no one else on TV who can carry off a link with quite the same degree of casuality as our John. And now you can keep up to date with the latest adventures of the Staplemeister, and learn more about the man they call El Gordo (in Spain. Possibly.)
