Information glut - 6

The BBC spent £1.2m with executive search consultants over the last five years.  The catering operations at Television Centre and Broadcasting House were subsidised to a total of £2.3m between 2006 and 2010, in order to keep open at times when the contractors could not make a profit.  The BBC says it's on course to remove subsidies by 2011/12. 

The BBC has a unnamed preferred supplier for wine, but apparently staff may occasionally purchase vinous liquids through expenses, the details of which would be too time consuming to extract.  However, the cost of wine purchased through the single supplier for the six months to 31st May 2010 was £17,623 including VAT.
