Back in 1970 I worked for the BBC for several months. My immediate manager addressed me by my christian name and I was expected to address him as “Sir”. I was informed that the shortfall in the BBC’s income relative to it’s expenditure was nothing to be concerned about. I was also told not to expect to be sent on OBs (outside broadcasts) if I did not dress smartly.
In 2019 I worked in Broadcasting House for a short period as a contractor. I only saw one person in the building who wore a tie and he was NOT the DG. I saw managers who wore their hair in a bun, had beards of which the average vagrant would be ashamed and turned up in jeans with the knees torn out. Many of the windows sported large semi-circles consisting of the colours of the spectrum which I understand to be a symbol used by propagators of equality for homosexuals.
Further thoughts; guess the point I am making is the way the BBC changed from “auntie BBC” which I think most people would have regarded as being a right wing institution into a far left PC brigade. Certainly not a change for the better I think most people would agree.
