He told students at Bournemouth University that there's a difference between the BBC and a restaurant. His argument: in a restaurant, if you see liver on the menu and you don't like it, you just don't order it. "We are like a restaurant where if you see liver on the menu, you say ‘I don’t like liver, that’s disgusting and it should be taken off the menu' "

Well, some quarters of the BBC feel obliged to proved calves liver for some, chicken liver for others and in Scotland, Scottish liver deep fried and battered (lazy stereotyping there - sorry). Doesn't seem to be a problem at ITV who wanted to exit regional news, but now want a half portion of the BBC's liver . . .
