See it, hear it, think it, talk radio and talk TV.

Good morning and welcome to the Independent Republic of Mike Graham right here on Talk TV.

An awful lot to do this morning.

There's a big press conference being called by the BBC.

Tim Davy, who is of course the Director-General of said organisation, the state broadcaster,

was going to have a press conference announcing the BBC's annual report,

which normally has things in it like how much money they've spent, how much money they're going to spend,

how much money they've collected from you, the licensed fee payer,

exactly how their ratings were doing, exactly what sort of shows they liked and what sort of shows they didn't like.

Unfortunately, of course, for Tim Davy,

one of the most unlucky men in global media, he's going to have to answer questions instead by the press about what is happening inside Broadcasting House, why somebody has been suspended,

We'll be bringing you that press conference as it happens, but unfortunately it will not be actually televised as such, even though the BBC are in a position to televise it.

What they're going to be doing instead is doing it on Zoom.

But we'll be having somebody watch it on Zoom.

Hopefully Oliver Whitfield-Meichich is going to be watching it for us.

We'll bring you some cuts and some clips from that as and when it happens.

The scandal continues.

The Director-General is still under fire. He doesn't seem to have an answer for it.

Whenever you hear a BBC report about the BBC's conduct, the BBC reporters don't seem to know much about the BBC's conduct.

So the story continues to rumble on. The son this morning calling the BBC liars, quoting the young person's father or stepfather, we only spoke
