And David Dimbleby was in the Black Country yesterday for the latest edition of Question Time.

The political panel show filmed at the University of Wolverhampton last night, with the discussion screened live on BBC One.

The panel was made up of Conservative culture secretary Karen Bradley, Labour Party chairman Ian Lavery, Mail on Sunday columnist Peter Hitchens, comedian and former Labour adviser Ayesha Hazarika and the businessman who co-chairs pressure group Leave Means Leave, Richard Tice.

It was broadcast from the Chancellor's Hall, in the Wulfran Building, in front of a studio audience of more than 200 people.

Vice-Chancellor Professor Geoff Layer said: “We are delighted to host Question Time at the University of Wolverhampton.

“It is a show synonymous with democratic debate and exploring different ideas and points of view and that is exactly what the university encourages and stands for.

“It is also important for Wolverhampton to be seen on a national stage, particularly with the way the city and region is regenerating itself.”
