MANCHESTER UNITED IN FAVOUR OF HST?

Interesting catch from a Biased BBC reader here;


“Piece on 5Live today about the Hight Speed Train line to Manchester.

We were treated to the views of a ‘businesswoman’ from Manchester who told us how vital the new line would be for her.

This woman turned out to be Cat Lewis, producer and film maker….who makes films for the BBC.

Isn’t Salford, where the BBC’s new media centre going to be, in Manchester? Guess it would be handy for all those BBC types to have a special train laid on for them. 

Must watch this space to see which side of the debate the BBC comes down on.”

WORKING HARD FOR YOU…

Great to see the BBC in top form so early in this new year. I tuned in to hear Kirsty Young introduce Vince Cable as “superman” on Desert Island Discs. Then I caught a trailer for the Westminster House starting at 10 tonight featuring “The Condensed History of George W Bush” – should be a riot.
