   Ken Clarke (1), April 1997   
      
   Certainty level: 30%   
      
   The first of two video segments from the same program, this shows   
   Jon Snow interviewing Ken Clarke in April 1997, during the general   
   election campaign. The following exchange is heard;   
      
   Jon Snow: "You say we are booming in your posters, the bust's around the   
   corner"   
      
   Ken Clarke: "You took that from three years ago, when I was being   
   advised to do all kinds of mad things to stimulate the economy,   
   and being told that I had to take desperate measures to get it going"   
      
   At this time I was watching television almost continuously at home,   
   with a video recorder whirring away, trying to obtain from the   
   newscasters a reaction which would give them away. I think this is an   
   instance where it happened. Ken Clarke first darts a glance straight at   
   the video camera (and perhaps at a monitor next to it showing my living   
   room), then comes out with "all kinds of mad things", while engaging in a   
   facial display involving raising of eyebrows and lowering of eyelids.   
   To me at the time, and also now, it looked as if he was selecting a   
   context into which he could drop the word "mad" as a directed insult against   
   me.
