		A nationally known personality, firstly as a television newsreader (BBC Wales's first) and, subsequently, as a presenter of numerous television and radio programmes, Michael Aspel was heralded as the 'golden boy' of British television during the 1970s and 1980s.
		His career began as a radio actor with the BBC in Wales in 1954 but he came to notice when he was hired as a guest announcer and newsreader for the BBC (Cardiff) in 1957.
		It was Aspel, whose deflating wit and boyish charm kept the pomposity within limits, who had the unenviable task of extracting two minutes of articulate charm out of the nervous contestants; on the demeaning level of: "I understand you are interested in antiques.

		It was, of course, a spoof and a very funny one at that, which claimed that there was a different man behind the respectable on-screen persona, hiding a dark past of womanising and an almost Godfather-like control over the media.

	The War Game (1968): Michael Aspel, Peter Graham, Kathy Staff - PopMatters Film Review
		Global warming has been pasteurized for action movie fodder in The Day After Tomorrow, and even the significantly more sober An Inconvenient Truth is limited in scope by its inability to reach beyond an audience of white, liberal art-house theatergoers.
		Michael Moore is the closest thing we’ve got to Peter Watkins in this day and age, but his smug, unavoidably partisan and repulsively acerbic films do almost as much damage as they seek to ameliorate—or did I miss it when Fahrenheit 9/11 successfully swayed the 2004 election for the Democrats?
		Errol Morris may be the best living documentary filmmaker, and at his best he can muster a bit of Watkins’ urgency, but his audience is such a small fraction of Moore’s that it seems perverse.
