Amazing timing by journalists: a play in two acts, plus a whale
Timing. Brilliant musicians have it. Amazing dancers have it. Stunning actors have it. And sometimes great journalists display it too.
Act 1: Michael Buerk
Act 2: James Burke
Quite brilliant.
Epilogue
Timing doesn’t always work out quite so well.
The James Burke one was just awesome. Especially when one thinks about it.
Imagine if he’d got it wrong and had to come back months later to try again!
