I'll readily admit I'm a fan of the This Week programme that is about to stop airing and believe Andrew Neil to be a competent interviewer. So here are the interviews facts and claims by both Johnson and Hunt being set out and checked.

Needless sabre rattling - Johnson as PM has no intention to leave without deal, I assure you this. Like May he plans to weasel around and turn things such that Britain will stay tied to the EU - the difference is that May wanted that from beginning on, while Johnson maybe not, but starts to play "May-hem" - pardon the pun - only when he does not get renegotiations with the EU. Which he will not get.
Brexit is as good as over a project. They all play just a theatre stage play. They all cheat and lie. May, Johnson, Corbyn, and the many others - them all.

^ However. Yesterday I saw some interesting documentation, 10 minutes or so, about the background of this extreme Brexit wing in the Tories party, and the strong business and economic ties these people have with the US. I did not know that these connections were this extreme, I only knew that this group exists. The narration went like this: that the US and Trump and their associates in Britain want the Brexit not despite but right because of the chaos it now would bring: the bigger chaos, the better, because chaos and economic turmoil always also means chance and opportunity for prepared, ahead-planning entrepreneurs with deep money pockets who want to take the chance to bite out big heaps of the British economy and finances and see a chance for big US business to especially get control over parts of the British economy and public services by privatization. Following this narration I would conclude that the US and Trump probably are the biggest enemy of Britain. Narration further included the tale that Johnson maybe knows what he is heading for - and even if he would want to change it and bail out, he no longer can, being driven by names in the background and forces that he has no control over, that abuse him and will spit him out once they chewd enough on him and Brexit chaos has been delivered.
The disobedient children of the revolution return back home to England to take it over. Say hello. Mind you, this strategy woudl exactly follow Trump's predatory scheme: destroy international treaties, get bilateral nation-to-nation deals on an individual basis as a replacement, and in this arrangement mercilessly push the other against the wall. Special relation thing? Pfffft, only you imperial Brits still believe in this nostalghic echo from history.

Ms Miller was deeply upset about the abuse she got from morons last time and she is asking for these morons to step up their abuse of her. I don't like the way she thinks but I for one would not give her grief.
