Quick reminder that @Ofcom has a statutory responsibility to ensure due accuracy and due impartiality. No statement yet? Did it ever consider the matter in hand at any stage? The BBC should be able to rely on a regulator to reassure - or sanction as appropriate.

So sad to hear of the death of Jean Hook, aged 99. A wonderful old-style secretary at Radio Trent who handled âtalentâ beautifully. An oasis of normality in a very odd world. And so sweet to me as I shyly arrived amongst my heroes 45 years ago. Goodnight, Jean. And thank you.
