    I was actually undecided Roger. “Shall I go with Hawkwind or the Grateful Dead,” so I went for the UK version.

      Interviews where the interviewee says "That's a Good/Great question..." And often it's every other question. Aren't they ALL supposed to be GOOD questions? How often do you hear "That's a STUPID question", even if it IS such?

        What bothers me is the interviewee saying "That's a Good/Great question..." and then NOT answering the question.

          With the risk of being political, but very much an irritation, Donald Trump seems to give interviews regularly, but only to people who ask the questions he wants, in the way that he wants, and then don't point out that he hasn't actually answered the question anyway.

          This irritation can be aimed at anyone who behaves like this, but Trump is the example we all recognise.
