'Not all immigrants are prostitutes, although it may seem like that,' he said, following up with: 'Although it's lovely being white, some people aren't and as a result they can have a really hard time.'

Hoyle interviewed a Ugandan immigrant called Kizzie who was arrested in his home country for being a gay activist. He came to Britain and was held in a detention centre for nine months while his application was processed.

Hoyle asked him to tell us about the traumas he faced in the centre but then interrupted him with a free-form monologue about 'the white man' chopping up Africa in the days of imperialism. This and other detours left Kizzie a bit nonplussed. Still, combining the weighty topics of the day with having a big camp laugh was never going to be an easy prospect.

For the grand finale, it was business as usual - Hoyle expressed his feelings about immigration through avantgarde movement, contemporary dance and painting. Marvellous!

Magazine is more fun when dealing with the superficial - Lea from Big Brother, a male prostitute pulling a bike chain out of his bum - and 'issues' such as this only result in the audience celebrating their own liberal credentials.

Still, it's all a bit of a laugh - and tonight it's 'dogging'. Hooray!
