Out and about

 Only marginal pickings in the latest list of senior BBC staff expenses. 

BBC News Content supremo Jonathan Munro flew to Washington in early October, for a mere £3,491.67. Later that month Jon Sopel announced he was leaving the role of BBC North America Editor. 

Controller Radio 4 Mohit Bakaya managed a visit to the Altstadt Hotel, Potsdam. Controller Radio 3 Alan Davey managed a couple of trips to Nottingham, as he tries to track down an acceptable base for the BBC Concert Orchestra. Head of Sport Barbara Slater popped over to the Novotel, Monte Carlo. 

Busiest traveller was topman-with-trainers Tim Davie, who managed nights in Manchester, Cambridge, Richmond, Birmingham, Cardiff, and Newcastle, as well as seven stays in London hotels, when Henley was clearly too far away. He also popped over to The Hoxton, in Amsterdam, where presumably leisurewear is de rigueur in the dining room.
