To be entirely honest it was actually thirty-four minutes rather than fifteen but Andy Warhol's observation that everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes is a gift of an opening and it's so much punchier than thirty-four!
The half an hour plus four minutes in question was the time that I spent giving evidence to The Leveson Inquiry into the culture ethics and practice of the British press on behalf of The British Press Photographers' Association. If you didn't already know, I am very proud to be one of the two Vice-Chairmen of The BPPA – an organisation that supports and promotes news photography in the United Kingdom.
