Talkability

BBC Chief Content Officer Charlotte Moore parked the bus in her first big appearance in front of MPs on the Public Accounts Committee this afternoon. Her first answer lasted an impressive 6 minutes 50 seconds, responding largely to questions she asked herself. 

DG Tim Davie was regularly and often 'very clear' about 'jeopardy'.  He faced opening bowler Gareth Bacon, Conservative MP for Orpington, who pointedly had a Union flag in his Zoom backdrop. Mr Bacon is among those who want a firm reprimand for BBC Breakfast presenter Naga Munchetty who, they feel, made light of loyalty to said flag by liking the wrong things on Twitter.  This issue wasn't raised - at least as I listened to the first hour.
