Eyeballs

Spotted plenty of Beeboids ploughing the festive furrow between Broadcasting House and John Lewis this lunchtime - Ros Atkins of BBC World News, Very Special Correspondent Lucy Manning, and Public Affairs Stayer Andrew Scadding.

Heading briskly in the direction of Sojo, Alan Yentob in a natty dark blue suit, with The Times ready-folded at the crossword, in case there's no-one to hob-nob with over lunch.

And, perhaps worse than wearing your pass outside the building, News Channel anchor Ben Brown striding out with his studio ear-piece and wires flapping at the back of his neck.

I saw them all, dear reader, but did they see me?
