Always a delight to be ahead of the game. We wrote back in October about the need for a new, specialist BBC Trustee, to look after the long-term future of the World Service, as it moves to licence-fee funding. Now you can apply for the job.
Who could/should it be ? One can probably rule out former Directors of the World Service, Mark Byford, Nigel Chapman, Richard Sambrook, and even John Tusa, as "too close". Ian Hargreaves, once of the FT and BBC, FCO, Ofcom and Cardiff University seems to tick all the boxes. Mark Damazer could probably fit it in, from his base at St Peter's, Oxford. Any other nominees ?
