IAIN'S EXCLUSIVE: Douglas Alexander Has Cancelled

Matching Mr GuF "scoop" for "scoop" is Iain's list of "excuses" for Douglas Alexander's apparent withdrawal from Question Time which will not look terribly clever if there's a death, an illness or something or other more important than a BBC1 entertainment (still showing WDA).

Yes, Iain, there really are things more important than appearing on TV. Really there are Iain, there are.

UPDATE 8:56 THURS: BBC online are still featuring WDA as their star turn for QT Cambridge tonight. Could Iain's information be wrong perchance?
