64 year old Paxo complained Newsnight had been taken over “by 13 year olds” when he quit in a huff in April, but will he be equally guilty of usurping his elders when he fronts Channel 4’s election night coverage next year? Spare a moment for Jon Snow, who, at 67, has been booted out of the way for the incoming younger man. Guido hears Jon is in a right tizz about it. Not the first time two grumpy old men have fallen out on TV.
