Ian Hislop laughs off taxi ‘shooting’ incident

Read Time:43 Second

Mr Hislop alluded to reports his taxi may have been shot at, which police later said was just a car malfunction.

Ian Hislop opened Have I Got News For You on Friday by talking about an incident in which the rear window of the taxi he was in was smashed.

The editor of the satirical magazine Private Eye said: “I always say at this point I’m glad to be here, but this week I really mean it”.

On Wednesday it was reported that a shot was fired at the taxi Hislop was in, but a police investigation found no evidence of a firearm being discharged and said a mechanical fault with the vehicle forced the window to shatter.

Neither Mr Hislop nor the driver, who reported the matter to the Met, was injured in the incident on Dean Street in Soho on Tuesday morning.
