She hid her frustrations well in the interview and really managed to keep it upbeat, which shows her professionalism. But it shouldn't really be down to the interviewee to work that hard to keep some kind of rapport going throughout the interview.Yes, I think you're right on all counts.As I mentioned earlier in the thread, I recently watched a lengthy Parky interview with Kenneth Williams and found him fine there (though, to be fair, with Kenny in full flight, all the interviewer needs to do is sit back and let him do his thing).Parkinson seemed to be a presence during my whole childhood, and seemed to be highly regarded as an interviewer and chat show host. I have little recollection of watching many of his interviews (in fact, I most associate the opening of his TV show with bedtime), but I've always kind of rated him based on his reputation. Based on what I've seen when revisiting GUAC, along with some of these less-successful interviews, I can't help feeling I feel I overrated him.</blockquote>
