    Hope Marlon sees this and applies. He is very knowledgeable on the politcal front.
    Oh please do. Maybe liven up the program.

    You should mate. The more sense from tarn the better, instead of them showing soundbites from rabid racists as usual when the BBC come fishing. If you could declare yourself as Tory in the interests of a balanced audience then even better!

    Apparently they ask which party you voted for in last election and how you voted in the EU Referendem. Oh and if you belong to a political party

    I know I'll tell them I belong to the Stairfoot People's Popular Front
    Or perhaps The Peoples Popular Front of Stairfoot

    That is going to be extremely cringe-worthy and embarrassing

    Yeah, this is it, it should be a balanced audience in so far as they can, but I bet they weren't just ordinary people off that bus?

    Seriously? Wonder why they couldn't get ordinary Tories in from closer to Dundee?

    TBH I've no idea where they came from. Possibly the posher bits of Edinburgh. I only said Hertfordshire as a laugh but some of the accents did sound very south of the border.
    But if you google Questiontime Dundee you could read more about it. It was filmed March last year.

    Don't suppose it'll be long before we see posts that claim QT audiences are biasely largely to the Left. I've not seen any evidence of this. I did notice the Tory part of the Coventry show a little while back were quite voiciferous and quite nasty towards some of the panel with their rantings though.

    Just had a look and it asks if you voted leave or remain, if you're a member of a party, who you'd vote for...

    I reckon you've not much chance of a ticket if you select Labour.. .
