BBC Will Cut Shows Not Channels, Says Director General Tim Davie; ‘No Evidence’ Of Tim Westwood Complaints
A major announcement is coming over the next few weeks as to how the corporation plans to save around £1.5BN over the next five years and Davie hinted that cutting shows over services is the likely direction. He has operated with a policy of “fewer, bigger, better” since taking over 18 months ago.
“People love publicly saying ‘let’s kill a channel’ but the truth is you can reduce content without doing that.” Davie is also “bullish” about the prospects of commercial producer-distributor BBC Studios bringing in greater returns to help ease the savings burden. “I’ve set an agenda for the BBC and it’s very simply asking what we are valued for and what is our strategy?,” Davie said.He had tricky questions to answer on Westwood, the superstar DJ who was yesterday accused of sexual misconduct by seven women in a joint investigation by The Guardian and the BBC, allegations that Westwood strenuously denies.
