I think he had been pestering BA crew for a free upgrade to business class because not long after the flight took off he vacated his World Traveller Plus seat (I had a prime view from World Traveller!). He seemed a bit "look at me, I'm on the telly!", and a bit annoying.
Was Piers Morgan in WT+ !? CNN budgets must have been hit hard.

I'm sure they did -- heads of state get away without passport control, the rest of us have to get it done somewhere by someone (although I'm not quite sure what country you're in when you go to Gaza).
