Comfier chairs

We've mentioned before that the BBC Trust looks expensive, especially when it duplicates work that Ofcom does, and when the BBC has non-executive directors in place. Lord Fowler lines up this morning in the Guardian amongst those who say it's time for change.

"Which organisation has a total revenue of more than £4bn a year, more than 20,000 staff, and offices throughout the world but has been without a chairman for the past two years? The answer is the BBC".

The good Lord is kinder to current Trust chairman Sir Michael Lyons than others - he suggests he could just transfer into the re-engineered role of BBC chairman on the evaporation of the Trust.
