卡梅伦做客访谈节目遭“调情”

When David Cameron was interviewed on one of the most popular morning television shows just weeks before the election, he might have expected a fierce interrogation about his future policy plans. 

当戴维·卡梅伦在大选数周前做客一档颇受欢迎的早间访谈类节目时,他或许以为会面临凶猛的未来政策计划方面的问题。 

 
But instead, the Prime Minister was treated to a cosy armchair interview, as well as a chat in his own back garden, as presenter Susanna Reid asked questions about his family. 
 
The Good Morning Britain host, notorious for flirting with her interview subjects, was wearing a light blue dress as she questioned Mr Cameron in the comfort of a Number 10 drawing room. 
 
Her interview style was described as 'less a Paxman-style interrogation and more 50 Shades flirting' by a body language expert, who added: 'If I were Sam Cam I would have been rushing in with a fire extinguisher.'
 
The questions focused on the Prime Minister's personal life, with little mention of policy despite the fact that voters have just seven weeks to make up their minds ahead of the election. 
 
During the brief interview broadcast on ITV this morning, Ms Reid asked 14 questions, 11 of which were about Mr Cameron's family, with two on the possibility of a future coalition and one on the proposed election TV debates. 
 
The segment started off with an amble through the rose garden at 10 Downing Street, before the pair settled into armchairs in one of the house's drawing rooms, with mugs of tea on the table beside them. 
 
Body language expert Judi James described the presenter as 'outrageously flirty', pointing to the way she put her thumb in her mouth and crossed her legs during the interview. 
 
'There's the distracting leg display, the modest cut-off gesture with the arm but then the fist to chin gesture that evolves into a thumb in the mouth,' she told Mail Online. 
 
'Her smile looks excited and her head dips coyly. If I were Sam Cam I would have been rushing in with a fire extinguisher.'
