...Lords and chancellor of Oxford University. Now he's published Not Quite the Diplomat, a learned romp through the lessons of a life in politics. He spoke with Time's J.F.O. McAllister. you're very critical of tony blair. He's an extremely talented politician, articulate and intelligent, and brilliant at the more vulgar end of empathizing. But I think he's deeply superficial. He skids across the surface of issues.

And, as with the British series “Coupling,” NBC swung and missed with the American version. With all due respect to Steve Carell, who is very funny in almost everything he does, the U.S. “Office” just isn’t very funny.
