<p>David Hasselhoff&#8217;s views have been given an academic airing at the Oxford Union &#8211; with The Hoff waxing lyrical about topics ranging from politics and personal philosophy to reality TV and talking cars.</p>
<p>The US actor, singer and all-round entertainer was given the floor to talk about truth and consequences &#8211; a topic that allowed him to opine &#8211; and occasionally sing &#8211; on any number of subjects.</p>
<p>Those present learned that Prime Minister David Cameron admits to being a huge fan of Knight Rider and that, according to The Hoff at least, reality shows have ruined TV. The revelation may come as a surprise to fans of the 58-year-old and his TV work, which has included reality TV shows Dancing With The Stars and The Hasselhoffs, in which he starred alongside his two daughters.</p>
<p>Dressed in a shiny grey suit and tie and carrying a Baywatch-style life preserver, Hasselhoff took to the platform to ringing applause and a standing ovation.</p>
<p>During a 10-minute introduction, David explained that he had just come up from Westminster, where he bumped into Mr Cameron.</p>
<p>&#8220;I go to Parliament and I&#8217;m having a great time. I say, &#8216;I&#8217;d really like to meet the Prime Minister&#8217;, and as I turned around there is the Prime Minister. He said, &#8216;I&#8217;m a big fan of Knight Rider&#8217;. I said, &#8216;I&#8217;m a big fan of you &#8211; are you Tony Blair?&#8217;,&#8221; The Hoff joked to the audience.</p>
<p>The judge of Britain&#8217;s Got Talent said his experiences filming the show led him to believe that Britain was every bit as &#8220;nuts&#8221; as America. But he had some harsh words to say about the direction that reality shows had taken television. &#8220;Reality television has ruined television,&#8221; he said, adding: &#8220;It is exploitation of youth.&#8221;</p>
