Jonathon Miller (and there are two, so it's sometimes easy to become confused between them) - Dr Jonathon Miller has a well-proportioned skull - so we find him handsome. His haircut doesn't interfere with that perception (as mine would). Because we like what he looks like (and there's another layer of accent-inflected characteristics) we trust what he says.
Which is where Frank Zappa went wrong in his desire to be a politician. (Nobody believed him as 'he lacked beauty'). I'm just catching up with the new series of Dr Who and have found that you need to watch the (hence download them) in order of transmission. I've got 1, 10 and 13 so far ! No sign of Bleak House (episode 1) amongst the 'file-sharing' community yet !
