Alex James: any more sightings?

How could I have missed it? I'm talking, of course, of Alex James on Panorama on Monday night. Somewhere at the back of my mind I knew his Today programme slot was a plug for another BBC project but - alas - I didn't tune in to see more of him on Monday night. That was the same day, you may remember, I wrote asking whether anyone else felt like withholding payment of the licence fee every time he appears on the BBC.

So what happened on Panorama? A sharp-eyed colleague tells me he offered the President of Colombia some of his cheese: 'It was like something out of Chris Morris'.

Any more, equally wonderful, moments?
