Victor Lewis-Smith

And what about the jokes of Victor Lewis-Smith on Radio 1 (Saturdays, repeated Fridays). He is undoubtedly a funny fellow, full of breakneck wisecracks and all sorts of voices. But some of his jokes appear to be made at the expense of ordinary people. Who, for instance, was the receptionist asked to find, of all people, Haile Selassie? And how funny is it that some of us don't recognise the old emperor's name?
