The forensic, long-form political interview remains possibly the best, and certainly the most entertaining, mechanism for political accountability. Can it survive in an age of spin, social media and soundbites?

To answer that question, Will is joined by Rob Burley. Rob is one of the most respected and experienced editors in British political television, with a CV that includes stints as editor of the BBC’s live political programs, The Andrew Marr Show, Politics Live and Newswatch.

His new book, ‘Why is This Lying Bastard Lying to Me?’, is a history of political television and a love letter to its highest form: the long-form, forensic political interview.
