I'm unsure why the BBC apologised. He wasn't offensive and her facial expression did give a flippant vibe.

[lindapalmara]

Marr is a rubbish political interviewer. Give me his namesake any day (Andrew Neil)

[spathiphyllum]

I think he's quite good, else why would he still have so many viewings and why would he still be in the position he's in.

[Spicerack]

He's a creep.

[NellieMay]

I won't watch him. Agree with LP (and Spicerack)

[Old_Geezer]

How dare she appear to be smiling !
I wonder if my woman's related to Andrew Marr.

[retrocop]

It is her natural expression Spath.He would of done well to research her on other interviews before making a fool of himself and rebuking her live on air.

[ludwig]

Either her natural expression resembles a supercilious smirk, or she just is smirking superciliously all the time. It's impossible to know.

[Gromit]

Marr was wrong. She wasn’t laughing or smirking.



The has BBC apologised, and rightly so.

[agchristie]

Haaa! This reminds me of a physics lesson at the start of a new term.The teacher bollocked everyone and then sent out the lad sat next to me cos of the smile on his face.

It was his normal look (he was a bit odd but didn't deserve that..)

[ludwig]

To be fair, looking at that clip, it looks like she could have something wrong with her jaw, so yeah, an apology was due from Marr.

[retrocop]

No way is she smirking or laughing. Marr is a part.

[Bazile]

“I can’t see why you’re laughing.” //

Laughing ?

Quite apart from the fact , that is her natural facial expression - can't Mr Marr tell the difference between some one smiling and someone laughing ?

[david small]

I think she quite lovely.

[Old_Geezer]

Just Priti

I watched this on silent on gromit's link, and saw no sign of smirking. I actually thought she just looked unimpressed.
