Elderly eggs thrown at Martha Kearney - Guardian

Elderly eggs thrown at Martha Kearney: "

Not even a day into the general election campaign, and Monkey has already seen the first egg thrown at a politician. Not actually thrown today, we hasten to add, but a video clip of a poultry (but not paltry) missile aimed at the then Liberal leader David Steel in 1987. It missed. But who did it hit? None other than Martha Kearney, now better known as host of BBC Radio 4's World at One and former political editor of Newsnight. Her pained 'Argh!' as the egg strikes about four seconds in is a cause of concern - and hilarity - in approximately equal measure.
