Should we make Michael Johnson an honourary Brit?

Question

I think that he really is, by far, the best BBC analyst at these Olympics!

Answer 1

erm. NO!

don't be fooled by someone, just coz they have an American accent.

only joking.

Answer 2

I have worked with him at many events and he is so clued up, sensible and professional. Love listening to him!

Answer 3

would prefer michael phelps as an honourary brit!

Answer 4

Yeah, I've often wondered myself why he doesn't commentate for American TV, rather than for the BBC.

But I like him, he seems very down to earth considering what he's achieved!

Answer 5

No, but you can have Michael Jackson.

Answer 6

Yes, because he accepted the BBC job which pays less than NBC...(BBC is a state broadcaster)..that's commitment to the job.

Answer 7

Yeh, i agree with Clare, i've wondered why he has chosen BBC over American tv, maybe he got a better deal although not sure. But he definitely seems down to earth, which is surprising because many a time i saw him run i never saw him as such a great analyst and it seems he has gelled really well into the BBC, much like McEnroe has done at Wimbledon. Well done to Michael, i am proud to have him on our screens!

Answer 8

Yeah, he`s OK
