All for older women; LETTERS to the EDITOR.


SO WORD is that the BBC BBC
 in full British Broadcasting Corp.

Publicly financed broadcasting system in Britain. A private company at its founding in 1922, it was replaced by a public corporation under royal charter in 1927.
 director general has given the broadcaster 12 months to recruit a female news reader over the age of 50. Surely they can do it in less than 12 hours. There are at least half a dozen very skilled, very proficient and still very attractive female news readers out there who more than fit the bill.

Off the top of my head from quick recollection, or as an approximation; without research or calculation; - a phrase used when giving quick and approximate answers to questions, to indicate that a response is not necessarily accurate.

 I can picture Jan Leeming, Kate Adie, Moira Stewart and Selina Scott. Whether any of them would be interested in working for the creaking dinosaur youth-obsessed BBC again is another matter I expect.
