It's only words

I was thinking of joining a book club for the New Year, but it may have to wait til 2014.  Nick Pollard promised to publish "annexes" to his report on what went wrong at Newsnight over Savile after the year had turned - and they are rumoured to be on their way. The transcripts of his interviews, even with redactions, are likely to make Les Miserables (book, musical or film version) look as easy to digest as an episode of In The Night Garden.

The inquiry assembled 17 lever arch files of documents, and interviewed 19 witnesses, some of them for as long as eight hours, and three of them twice.
