Ashley is moving on
I’ve almost deliberately not blogged about my super boss leaving the BBC and heading for pastures new – he’s off to run Kangaroo. But with the amount of traffic and questions I’m getting from the nice people of the press perhaps this is the easiest place to comment. There’s been a massive amount of talk … Continue reading
Quick review of the Asus

So here I am at the show… it’s live over at miptv.com It’s a rather strange set – dressed as it is to give the results in a mastermind style – very odd. More here as it happens.

Yesterday I was far too caught up with organisingĀ Over the AirĀ to even notice that our country, and the city in which I live, had decided to bend over and allow the Olympic Torch to be carried around, held aloft proud and strong, surrounded by Chinese security and police officers on bikes. So it’s with some … Continue reading
