Tying Hands

Malta Independent Friday, 16 June 2006, 00:00 Last update: about 13 years ago

What would happen if you take an Italian and tie both his hands?

The answer is very simple, he would not be able to speak, and sometimes I wonder how they manage to speak over the telephone because they cannot use their hands to gesticulate as they do during a television programme, be they presenters or guests.

This habit unfortunately is repeated by some of our local TV presenters on certain stations during some programmes, and it is not the first time that newscasters hold a pen in their hand while presenting the news bulletin.
