There was little glory in last Friday's appearance of Biba and the ABI in the Sun newspaper, a firm daily favourite with Backchat.

Sought out for their expert opinions on the insurance claims likely to flood in after the Selby train crash, the big pair only made page five.

And the ABI's press man Malcolm Tarling was credited as speaking for the British Association of Insurance Companies.

Who said accuracy in journalism was dead?
