Lyons' den

Is BBC chairman Sir Michael Lyons creating too much expectation around the "size of the BBC" debate ? Here's a quote from him on this week's R4 Media Show.

"We have already done work to reshape the BBC on behalf of the people who pay for it, that is the job of the Trust. We have been doing this work over two years.

"We now believe it needs to be accelerated and we have asked the director general to begin a radical review and it may lead to changes in services and indeed the end of some services."
