Following Boris Johnson's decision to reluctantly pull out of the Conservative leadership contest last night, the public broadcaster's flagship news channel launched an impromptu on air celebration. Martine Croxall (left) - a veteran presenter trusted by the Corporation to announce news of the death of Prince Philip - admitted she was unable to hide her glee that the Brexit champion (inset top) and proven election winner had been kept from returning to Number 10 Downing Street, thanks to a relentless campaign led by the establishment all weekend long, including, of course, her employer. With the body language of a giddy teenage Harry Styles fan meeting her idol, she started the programme by exclaiming: 'Well, this is all very exciting isn't it. Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. Am I allowed to be this gleeful? Well, I am.' Well, you're not actually. Right: Rishi Sunak.
