	Angus Deayton - Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
		Angus was the first television presenter in the history of the BBC to be publically caught and humiliated for not taking drugs.
		Although some of Angus' celebrity friends such as John Lennon fought to clear his name, the ears of the public were closed, and Angus' career was over.
		Although there is no conclusive evidence that Angus ever got a word in on the show, due to the staunch right wing rhetoric of Ian Hislop and Paul Merton's array of amusing armpit noises always drowning him out, Angus was seen by the public to be the face of the show.

	Biography of Angus Deayton (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Gordon Angus Deayton (born January 6, 1956) is a British comic actor and television presenter.
		The foundation of Deayton's career was the parody of commercial/local British radio stations Radio Active transmitted on BBC Radio 4 between 1981 and 1987, which he both wrote and performed in.
		Deayton's suave manner as host of Have I Got News For You and a tabloid kiss-and-tell story by an ex-girlfriend led to him being nicknamed "TV's Mr Sex" in around 1993.

	BBC NEWS \| UK \| Deayton in the lion's den
		Angus Deayton, the celebrity who has spun a handsome living out of mocking other, more hapless, celebrities with his pithy putdowns, arrived at a television studio in London to eat one humungous serving of humble pie.
		Deayton may not have wanted to be here, at the Thursday night filming of Have I Got News For You, but wild horses could not have persuaded the studio audience to be anywhere else.
		Deayton mumbled contritely: "Some elements are true, some elements are not true."

	Guardian \| How could you be so naive, Angus?
		Even campaigning journalists who passionately believe that Deayton is a national role model of such stature and moral influence that details of his extra-mural sexual encounters must be exposed, for the sake of our children, to the fullest inspection, now appear to be reluctant to risk imprisonment in this noble cause.
		Deayton has not been much more consistent: one day press curiosity would be indulged, even gently tickled, another it would be prohibited, by order of a judge, following an application heard in secret.
		Deayton is entitled to consider some areas of his life more inaccessible than others, but it is either remarkably naive or preposterously over-confident of Deayton or his PR to think that the press will submit to his idiosyncratic view of which areas should be roped off and which opened up to gawping trespassers.

		By last Sunday, he had persuaded Deayton to tell his story to the Sunday Mirror, and Mayer to talk at length to the Mail on Sunday.

		Thus when Angus Deayton was fired last week, Hislop, that diminutive giant of satire, and the tall, droll Merton rolled up their sleeves and gave their old chairman a fresh roasting.
		The week that Deayton presented the Bafta awards for a then-record fee of £50,000, his team players pelted him with Bafta jokes including a final missing words round, where the team were asked to complete the headline "Monkeys trained to be…" Hislop immediately scythed in with "Bafta hosts."
		And of course there is the moral dimension; the recent tabloid revelations have badly damaged Deayton’s relationship with his partner and mother of his child, Lise Mayer.

	The Observer Profile: Angus Deayton \| Comment \| The Observer
		Deayton had been tied to the BBC in a rare 'golden handcuffs' contract that prevented him from identifying himself with other networks.
		Even when Deayton is cast in an acting role he tends to be the affronted neighbour, first as Patrick in One Foot in the Grave and now as Nighty Night's Don.
		Deayton may have been attacked by critics and, occasionally, by co-stars, for doing an apparently easy job, but making it look easy was his chief skill.

	Barbelith Underground > Switchboard > Angus Deayton vs. The Tabloids
		Looking at the headlines in the newsagents this morning, I noticed that several of the tabloids are very pleased indeed about the sacking of Angus Deayton from "Have I Got News for You".
		From all reports, Deayton was a deadshit off-camera, and difficult to work with - at least, that's what The Guardian was suggesting, anyway...
		The basic premise is that as a commentator on the headlines and news in general he should not be the subject of them and thus the BBC closed his contract under a standard public image clause.
