Elegant English is alive and well in the Christmas messages of BBC executives. 

Tim Davie, Director General

"We'll keep you updated on the Culture Review which many of you are contributing to."   

Jonathan Munro, BBC News Global Director and Deputy CEO of BBC News & Current Affairs  

"Much of our journalism has won industry awards – too many to list here, but a fulsome harvest for sure."

Deborah Turness CEO News

"We have also been able to report year-end results across our platforms that I have described to the BBC Executive as ‘defying gravity’. That’s because we are not only in a fiercely competitive news environment, we are also fighting the challenges of disinformation and news avoidance as consumers shift from broadcast to digital. But we are driving growth right across our organisation. That’s thanks to your powerful journalism and creative drive, and for your support in ensuring that the digital investments we made last year are paying off. "
