I lay in bed, my eyes burning from complete exhaustion. It was nearly eight o'clock and my day had begun before I wanted it to. I rolled over and I could feel my heart pounding against the mattress, as though it was going to smash right through it, on to the floorboards and dangle down into the room below.

Columnist Comments
• Andrew Grice: The Chancellor must consider tax hikes.
Despite the weight on his shoulders, the Chancellor remains remarkably calm.
• Howard Jacobson: The lesson of Hitler's deformity.
So Hitler actually did have only one ball. I call that a pity for history.
• Deborah Orr: Praising the public on pointless decisions.
People power, as it pertains to television anyway, is proving to be a tricky beast.
