Just the Millie Dowler case, he don't care about the rest.

What are Tom Watson's politics like? Do we like him outside of this?

You know that bit in Celebrity Mastermind when the celeb goes completely blank on their specialist subject? Like that, but not for charity.

Yeah, "quantum" was balls. Job interview failure.

there needs to be a killer question, maybe they're holding off so as to not influence later proceedings but

JM's voice is so fascinating, like he went to a hypnotise-people-into-having-sex-with-you course and learned how to soothe.

2.57pm: Tom Watson is engaging in a thorough and detailed questioning of Rupert Murdoch of the details of the phone hacking investigations carried out internally at News International - who knew what, and when. Rupert Murdoch, who is 80, appears to be having considerable trouble following the questions and finding appropriate answers. There are long pauses between the end of Watson's questions and Murdoch's answers.
