Comedy gold from UKIP deputy leader, Mike Hookem, and @maitlis is superb.

10. When she quoted Toby Young’s own nonsense back to him

12. And she also had the best answer to ‘who would you invite to your dream dinner party’ in this newspaper Q&A.

13. And finally, when she did this.

Not forgetting this fabulous gaffe …

“The former Health Secretary Alan Johnson joins us on the line from Hell.

“Sorry, Hull”

Hilarious! Forget the Prince Andrew interview, this is what you will be remembered for @Maitlis!#Newsnight pic.twitter.com/oRqwExOcYK

And finally – separate but related – when this happened.

As if 2020 wasn’t already bad enough, Emily Maitlis has been robbed of her legs. #Newsnight pic.twitter.com/Hza9TwYL6Z
