| Thursday 15 April 2010 at 10.30pm on BBC Two Presented by Kirsty Wark From Kirsty Wark: Tonight's live televised prime ministerial debates will make political history, and no sooner than they leave their lecterns, Newsnight will be on air with a specially extended programme. We will have the best moments, all the drama (we hope) and the finest analysis. The leaders have all been preparing hard for it, with some of Obama's team pitching in on both Labour and Tory preparations, but there's been squabbling about the rules already - will it go according to the detailed plans or will it go off piste? We have a whole range of guests giving us their reaction. Emily will be there in Manchester with some of the senior politicians who have swamped the venue, and who will have come from what's called "spin alley" where they'll be trying to influence journalists' perception of the debate. The SNP leadership will be chipping in with their response, and here in the studio we'll have reaction from the critic AA Gill and the body language (or should I say anthropological) expert, Judi James. Although the rolling news channels can't make comment in the midst of the debate - the social networks will be going full steam, and we'll reflect some of that response. We'll be hearing from Newsnight's political panel, who'll be watching intensely for every tic and trip, and also from two of tomorrow's papers leader writers. Don't miss what will be an historic night for British politics. |
