OMG those guys are magnificent. Reminds me why I’m such an Anglophile — there are times, especially the last 5 years, when that gets to be easy to forget. The interviewee has the absolute perfect air and accent, and the interviewer’s reactions are beautiful. (Come to think of it, the reactions remind me of the people in the John McCain “Yes we can stay in Iraq for 1,000 years” video when they hear what they’re saying. Americans are funny, too, naturally.)

Megan McArdle linked to them a while ago (a bit on the Northern Rock crisis), that was the first time I saw them. Brilliant work (seriously).
