What I'm saying is that the BBC doesn't
need these so-called superstar talent. Terry Wogan was,
IMHO, a superb radio presenter, but did his show cease to exist when he went? Did Strictly shut down when Brucie left? No. If anything, it went up. Could it survive being de-Claudia'd and/or de-Tess' d? Yes. Anyone taking over would be strange for a while, but after a bit,
they would be the star .... or be gone. .
Would I misz Evan Davies ot Kirsty Wark on Newsnight? No. What about ED on Dragon's Den? God, no. Without his statements from the ministry of the flipping obvious, either telling us what we just watched (yes, you idiot Davies, I remember what I watched 10 seconds ago without your recap) or what we're about to watch (thanks for ruining the surprise) the ptogram would be vastly
better.
Frankly, among the entire pool of "talent", I see very,
very little that would be missed for long. And quite a few I'd actively fire.
