Blimey - that would mean imminent collapse
BBC is ‘one journalistic lapse’ from falling apart, ex-chairman Lord Grade warns
Lord Grade of Yarmouth, who advises the Government on public service broadcasting, says the Martin Bashir scandal shows “the time for hand-wringing is well past”, and calls for an overhaul of the culture at the corporation.
Are we looking at lessons learned here?
“The time for hand-wringing is well past. The time for a reformed culture led by governance reform is now, before another journalistic “lapse” brings the whole house down.
“Journalism from the BBC is too important to our democratic blood stream to risk another serious error.”
No - not even that.

Whatever happens to the BBC, my guess is that a couple of hundred influential establishment people are currently tweaking their CV's and watching the appointments pages with interest.
Sam - and sounding out their contacts too I imagine. Seems to be another world, more tap on the shoulder than structured interview.
