Rewrite

It's a shame that BBC News online pays tribute to an elegant and precise broadcaster with an infelicitous headline "Mishal Husain bids farewell in final Today episode". 

Today is a news programme, and has 'editions'. It's not a soap with 'episodes'. However, it would be possible to shape a modern drama out of the last 20 minutes, with barely-concealed point-scoring by Today presenters past and present. 

Mishal's departure for Bloomberg is not a disaster for the BBC - but it may make people think the less of Tim "Ten Hag" Davie's ability to pick executives of quality.
