2. BBC news online political reporter has an original angle on this one
Commenting on Richard Dearlove's testimony, he says that what was really fascinating was the background noise that was clearly audible. He says it sounded like MI6 had got the plumbers in while their top honcho was testifying, perhaps mending a lavatory next door to the interview room where Sir Richard was hooked up by audio link to the High Court:

So were the spooks implying that their boss's evidence really was 'scraping the bottom of the barrel' or was it a wry comment on truth having gone down the pan?
Fight the good fight! Or: The only true voice of political opposition in the UK today is the media?
