Esteemed Question Time host David Dimbleby let his hair down this week - when he slid down a child's slide ahead of a fiery TV debate.

The broadcaster experienced the full force of one of Folkestone's children's attractions - but not before some youngsters had a go first.

The BBC star went down the metal slide at Payers Park, just a few minutes' walk from the Quarterhouse where the show was filmed on Thursday night.

"If I get to the bottom safely I will see you at 10.45pm."
