Thanks Matt! Here's the question I sent in:
"Do you have plans to take one of Richard Branson's suborbital flights once Virgin Galactic is up and running?"
Does anyone know if this program is broadcast in the U.S.?

Some years ago at Autographica, Buzz was asked this question at dinner and he replied that he had been invited but had declined. It will be interesting to see if he gives the same answer if your question is asked.

That Kirsty Young is a tease, when she started saying one of the questions was from Paul... I started getting very excited until she read out the surname and it wasn't mine!
Did anyone get a question asked on air? She did say there would be a fuller interview with more email questions put on the Newsnight website.

The interview on Newsight is here.
If you scroll down there are some extra questions. Sounds like he was not a fan of solid rockets!
