Entertainer Bruce Forsyth has revealed that he loves watching prime minister's questions, describing the House of Commons battles as "pure vaudeville".

He told the Radio Times that the verbal jousting of David Cameron and Gordon Brown reminded him of the comedians Frankie Howerd and Les Dawson.

"Prime minister's questions, that's two guys getting it on there," Mr Forsyth, who hosts Strictly Come Dancing, said.

He even records the weekly half-hour sessions, he added.

I must admit I find PMQ's interesting. The shouting and debating at each other makes me laugh.

Comedians running the country? No change there then! The attraction of the charade of PMQ's escapes me. Ya Boo politics at its worst!

PMQ's is awful, I find it so embarrasing to watch, they behave like children in a playground.

the audience at PMQ's should start shouting higher or lower each time an insult is traded.

I love PMQ's. It tests the metle of politicans to think on their feet, something old Gordy is not to good at. If there ever was a nuclear attack on the contry, we'd all be toast by the time he made a decision!

Not sure about that, but he is not a great debater.
Tony Blair could wipe the floor with Cameron. Brown is not a fast draw in the debate.
