The bbc, again.

Bloke is a prat trying desperately to make a name for himself.

Whilst I agree with the first part of your quote I disagree with the second as he is a very popular TV presenter who has made a name for himself through his TV programs and has no need to "desperately try to make a name for himself"

Meanwhile, some "Administrative Issues", come to light

Presenter Clive Myrie has apologised for failing to declare to the BBC at least £145,000 of earnings from engagements outside of the corporation.

Under BBC rules, presenters must reveal what they earn on an external events register, which is published by the corporation every quarter.

That's just a slight oversight. Who'd notice an extra £145,000?

I'm sure he's a very engaging and interesting bloke but what does he do on these engagements? Read out some news reports? Act as host for pub quizzes? Pole dance?

Oh, I see how easy it is to forget these other bits of work, when you're juggling jobs just to make ends meet.

"Two other BBC presenters have also declared retrospective earnings on the latest register.
Lucy Hockings earned at least £5,000 for one job as a moderator, and Jonny Dymond earned at least £1,000 for two engagements as a host and interviewer." (BBC website)

Myrie's backdated stuff goes back to 2021. I wonder what will show up on future declarations ?

 

[Stirlingsays]

None of us are surprised.

I know Iam old but I’ve never heard of him!

it’s easily done. Not BBC, but remember Nadhim Zahawi,

Went to put in a couple more slices of toast and forgot that instead he accidentally gave his dad 40% of the shares in an offshore trust.

The person I feel sorry for in this whole
BBC scandal is Claire Balding. All these allegations and not one has propositioned her*

*actually I don’t feel sorry for her as I was at the 2007 BDO darts final which she was presenting and described the crowd as “not her kind of people” off camera, followed by chavvy scum. I nearly put on my Kappa tracksuit and left in disgust.
