Pandora: Where is thy Sting?
Tuesday, 20 April 2010
Momentous news from Capitol Hill. As luminaries and their guests prepare to gather at this year's White House Correspondents Dinner, one couple will be conspicuous by their absence.

Pandora: Cherie returns to the promo circuit (again)
Thursday, 15 April 2010

Pandora: A Labour of love for film-maker Chadha
Wednesday, 14 April 2010

Pandora: John Prescott fails to lord it on the campaign trail
Tuesday, 13 April 2010

Pandora: Will battle-hardened Prezza become a Lord?

Pandora: No fighting with Thor, insists Sir Anthony

Pandora: Not Mrs Prescott's cup of tea, surely?
Friday, 2 April 2010
Once upon an election campaign, John Prescott found himself struggling with his temper after an onlooker pelted him with an egg. Now it's the turn of the former deputy PM's photogenic wife, Pauline, to bare the brunt of a grassroots protest.
