The row over how President Trump was portrayed in a Panorama programme has proved to be a scandal too far for embattled BBC bosses. Director-general Tim Davie and BBC News chief executive Deborah Turness have both resigned. But that's not enough for Mr Trump's lawyers who are demanding the BBC retracts the "false" statements in the documentary or face legal action for $1bn (£760m) in damages. Many will feel their departures were inevitable after questions over the way a Trump speech was edited sparked concerns about the corporation's impartiality.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.theflyingfrisby.comBefore we begin today's piece, let me flag this video I made based on my recent article about Triffin's Dilemma. 13 mins long and hopefully worth the effort. Might be the most important thing you watch this week.With all the narratives that come with a gold bull market - and also a bitcoin bull market - that we're heading to some kind of money reset, the dollar or the pound is going to collapse, we are going to end up on a gold or bitcoin standard and so on - you have an end goal. The bull market will continue until we reach that eventuality.However, I doubt very much we go back to a gold standard. Yes, gold's role as reserve asset increases, ditto bitcoin, but I don't see a return to the gold standards of the 19th or 20th century. Much more likely is a Hayekian world of competing currencies.The 20th century gold standards were bogus anyway - which is why they failed. There was no gold in circulation. Americans weren't allowed to own it. When Britain returned to a gold standard in 1925, the British government ensured there was little gold actually circulating. It minted zero gold coins, while the Bank of England hoarded what it already had. ( It's all in the book, if you're interested).The Secret History of Gold is available to at Amazon, Waterstones and all good bookshops. I hear the audiobook, read by me, is excellent. Amazon is currently offering 20% off.There was plenty of gold in circulation under the gold standards of the 19th century, but we are not going back to them because we barely use physical cash any more. We are not going to pay for physical things with gold or silver coins in the way we once did.It might be that China gives the yuan some gold backing, and makes its (digital) notes interchangeable with gold, but I find that unlikely. It might also be that gold backing is used to make US Treasuries more attractive, as economist Judy Shelton, former advisor to Donald Trump, has proposed.Again, though possible, I would give it a low probability.The gold bull markets of the 1970s and 2000s did not end with gold standards. I doubt this one will. A gold standard is a political ideal. Real life is a lot more mucky.Unlike gold, gold bull markets do not last forever, any more than tech or any other kind of bull markets do.And this bull market is getting hot. That's for sure. Gold is at $3,700/oz. While the mainstream press are not really covering it, there has been a definite change in tone online. Silver is starting to lead. Gold miners are starting to deliver.Towards the end of previous gold bull markets, I usually get invited on to the BBC to talk about gold. Massive name drop, I was actually fraternising with BBC Director General, Tim Davie, this week - enough to get a selfie at least - but I am currently so far from being invited on to the BBC, whether for my satirical songs or for my market commentary - even with a new book on gold just out - that I believe we are a way from that.(In another age, I would have been a fixture on BBC radio. I have got the voice. I have got the intellect. But obviously, wrong age, wrong sex, wrong colour and all of that. Wrong views too).Anyway, back to more important matters.Things got hot and spicy with gold in the spring, as we warned, not unlike now. But we didn't feel it was the top. We just needed to go sideways for a few months, which we have.With physical gold, especially if you live in a Third World country like the UK, there is a strong argument never to sell. Even during gold's bear market (2011-2020), gold was a brilliant hedge against woeful sterling.If you buying gold or silver to protect yourself in these “interesting times” - and I urge you to - as always I recommend The Pure Gold Company. Pricing is competitive, quality of service is high. They deliver to the UK, the US, Canada and Europe or you can store your gold with them. More here.You could just hold your gold and then pass it on to your heirs. Bitcoin's the same. But then again you might want the money for something else.In the 1970s gold went from $35/oz (an artificially low price due to US suppression) all the way to $850/oz.But that $850 mark was just as much an illusory price. Though it has been logged in people's minds for decades ever since, the reality is it reached that price during one spike on one afternoon. The Cold War was looking grim: the Soviet Union had just invaded Afghanistan a month before. The Iranian hostage crisis was making everyone panic (the hostages were released the day before the spike). It was the day after US President Ronald Reagan had been inaugurated. Nobody yet knew what a success he was going to be. There was an ongoing and severe crisis in the US bond markets, which had sent interest rates above 10%.In other words, there was a lot going on. And yet gold only hit $850 for an afternoon. Hardly anyone sold the top of that spike.The launch to $850 gold began in December 1979 with that Soviet invasion. Gold broke above $450. The day after the spike, gold collapsed like a stone. By March it was below $500.Gold then did something you commonly see at the end of bull markets. The Nasdaq did something similar in 2000. Silver did it in 2011. It rallied. That rally persuaded people the bull market was still on. It was a suckers' rally.But the retest did not even make it back to the old high. It was a lower high, in other words.Then the relentless declines kicked in. By 1982 - 18 months later - gold was at $300/oz. It then spent the next 20 years - 20 years! - trading between $300 and $400, before eventually hitting a low in 1999 at $250/oz, when Gordon Brown sold. Idiot.My point is that in 1980 it looked to some like a return to gold standards was coming. The US had only abandoned gold 9 years earlier - and, in President Nixon's words, temporarily. Gold was still normal in people's minds. But the gold standard never came and gold was a rotten investment for 20 years.2011, by the way, was not of 1980 standards but the price still shot from $1,500 to $1,920 in a couple of months with the Greek debt crisis. There followed another gruesome bear market which saw gold go all the way back to $1,050.There is so much anti-dollar sentiment out there now, it might be that everything turns on its head - as things are wont to do - and we get a dollar rally.I recognise that things are looking frothy. Anytime silver starts doing well, that is usually a warning sign.A lot of American commentators like to use the baseball analogy. I would suggest maybe we are in inning six of nine. Something like that, possibly.So when to sell?

Two utterly damning reports into the BBC landed within a matter of hours of each today, calling into question the future of the director-general Tim Davie and indeed the corporation itself.Firstly, the failure to handle the behaviour of Gregg Wallace was laid bare in an internal review that saw the BBC admit that it could have done more to stop the Masterchef presenter.And then it went from bad to worse after a separate review into the controversial documentary Gaza: How to Survive a War Zone confirmed that it had breached editorial guidelines on accuracy, having failed to disclose that the narrator was the son of a Hamas official.Camilla and Tim speak to former culture secretary Sir John Whittingdale, who believes that Tim Davie “must be considering his position” and that “the funding of the BBC is rapidly reaching the point where we have to look at alternatives”.Producesr: Lilian Fawcett & Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersStudio Operator: Meghan Searle Hosted on Acast.

Labour used to be the party that leapt to the defence of the BBC. So why was the Culture Secretary this weekend calling for heads to roll, saying she was "exasperated" at the broadcaster, and refusing to express confidence its director general Tim Davie? The BBC has admitted to failings in its Glastonbury coverage, which saw it stream one act chanting "death to the IDF" - despite the corporation later admitting it had deemed them "high risk" before the festival. But those admissions don't appear to have satisfied the government. Is Labour falling out of love with the BBC? And should the BBC be worried? Jon and Emily discuss with Sir Craig Oliver, former BBC News editor turned Downing Street director of politics and communications.Later, on the twentieth anniversary of the 7/7 bombings, which killed 52 people, injured more than 700, and led to the largest criminal investigation in British history - have we learnt the lessons from the tragedy? Yasmin Khan, a human rights campaigner and friend of the de Menezes family, appears in the Netflix documentary 'Attack on London', and came in to News Agents HQ.

The BBC and STARMER Are FINISHED – Here's Why  #JonGaunt #BBC #KeirStarmer #Glastonbury #RaceHate #ReformUK Both organisations are hopelessly out of touch with the British population with their Anti Trump bias, Anti Israel , small boats, immigration, Muslim rape gangs inquiry and disdain for patriotism. Jon Gaunt says that the Glastonbury race hate scandal has put the nail in their coffin.  They are both in thrall to Reform UK and Nigel Farage and have no policies of their own.  Tim Davie the Director General must resign or be sacked today.  Starmer has not only lost the country but clearly also his own party with the MPs rebellion on Welfare reforms. Starmer is Prime minister in name only. Let's ‘DEPORT' both of these useless so-called Leaders.

Why has Gary Lineker's career at the BBC ended after 30 years? Who has been enabling Diddy for decades in his infamous 'freak-off' parties? Why did Marina queue for three hours in Westfield for a tiny plastic doll - and was it worth it? Richard Osman and Marina Hyde investigate the sordid Diddy trial for sex trafficking and racketeering and ask if anyone else is to blame for enabling celebrity monsters. Tim Davie sets out his vision for a renewed BBC last week, the pair discuss the future of the public service broadcaster in the UK. What the hell is a Labubu? And where are 20-somethings obsessed with a cheap plastic toy from China? Marina has the scoop from the frontlines (of late-stage capitalism).

Huge news in Elis and John towers today, for Producer Dave bumped into the man, the myth, the Solero supper himself, Mr Tim Davie. Could he use this opportunity to pitch a brand new true crime podcast about dupes from Stockport who get sold fake shoes? Well that commission's ripe for the taking if there's a Magnum that goes the other way.Alongside yet more DG discussion Elis really thinks he should get into juggling, for some inexplicable reason, and we have a game which makes the greatest use of a beat since the invention of the bass drum.

Richard Ayre is the chair of the UK's independent press regulator, Impress. Before that, he spent about thirty-five years at the BBC as a former controller of editorial policy and deputy chief executive of BBC News, before becoming a member of the BBC Trust. Richard is also a former member of the OFCOM content board. In this week's episode, we discuss BBC's DG Tim Davie and Chair Samir Shah's appearance in front of the Department of Culture, Media and Sport's select committee: the fallout from the Gaza documentary which was pulled after it was discovered the 13-year-old narrator had a family connection to Hamas, future funding models, the World Service, and the possibility of a generational charter.“There was a meeting between BBC executives and executives of the production company—a face-to-face meeting—to comply this film before it went out, and the BBC didn't press for an answer or didn't get an answer to the question about the connection of the kid's. That's very worrying, and that, I imagine, is where the BBC's inquiry is now going to unearth some bodies—or people likely to be bodies.” Listen to all our episodes here: https://podfollow.com/beebwatch To support our journalism and receive a weekly blog sign up now for £1.99 per month (NB we only charge for one creation per month): www.patreon.com/BeebWatch/membership Or if you'd rather make a one-off payment (which doesn't entitle you to the blog) please use our crowdfunding page:https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/roger-boltons-beeb-watch-podcast @BeebRogerInstagram: rogerboltonsbeebwatchLinkedIn: Roger Bolton's Beeb Watchemail: roger@rogerboltonsbeebwatch.comwww.goodeggproductions.uk Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Each week we sit down with Matt Stringer, CEO of RNIB, to look at some of the big stories coming from the UK sight loss charity. For the first catch up of 2025 Matt began by reflecting on all the great coverage in both national and local press of how the RNIB and blind and partially sighted people had been celebrating World Braille Day on 4 January 2025, marking the day that Louis Braille was born, plus all the on-going Braille 200 events as we all mark 200 years since Louis Braille invented his six-dot tactile reading and writing system. Then to the visit from Tim Davie, Director General of the BBC to our London office the Grimaldi Building on Wednesday 8 January 2025 with Matt talking about how the visit had gone which also included a tour of the Grimaldi Building, a meeting with Matt and other senior RNIB staff along with Matt mentioning a project that the BBC and the RNIB are working together on which we will all hear more about in the summer. If you, or someone you know, would like information on the support and services available from RNIB, go to www.rnib.org.uk You can also call our Helpline on 0303 123 9999 or ask Alexa to call RNIB's Helpline. #RNIBConnect Image shows a smiling Matt

This is sierras of the papas broadcasting, and news just in: we're all out of papas!John's losing his voice because of doing an extraordinary impression of an Australian in a mystical Bureau de Change for some BBC Sounds bonus content, but we plough on! And in a way, this is the definition of ‘talent', which we discover that Tim Davie is keen to define.Elsewhere, there's a classic Made Up Game, Elis (Patient Father and Nice Friend) James does some keepy uppies and Dave engages in a stag where he's actually early for Match of The Day.The Bureau has been mentioned here already, but if you're missing out, then you're missing out on bonus content described by listener Kate as “Perhaps the funniest but most bizarre 15 minutes of radio I've listened to in 57 years.” And where can you get it? BBC Sounds of course, with episodes titled ‘Sounds Bites' on our feed.And if you're not on it then get on it: elisandjohn@bbc.co.uk. Or 07974 293 022 on WhatsApp. ‘It' clearly being email.

Jekyll and Hyde isn't a work of fiction. Nor is James McAvoy in hit film Split. No. If you were to venture down the B and C roads of mainland Wales the past few weeks you'll have seen something far more surprising: Welsh Elis and English Elis. For there's an astonishing revelation of the West Walian comic once thought of as polite and mild-mannered. James' alternative persona is coming to a Welsh theatre near you and be prepared for an attitude that will shock. As well as the mental there's also time for analysis of the physical side of the game, as the boys dig into the sudden born to bench trend of the UK funny man. There's also a national infrastructure halting Shame, and there's an inspirational Made Up Game sure to generate merch revenues that could pay for Tim Davie's Calippo bill for at least the next financial quarter. All this despite an initial lack of confidence in the gameplay. Because it wouldn't be Elis and John if they didn't trash a game before passing it with flying colours. Trust. The. Process.If you aren't already listening to the show on the universe leading BBC Sounds app then you better swear on Adrian's life that you'll sort that very this instant.
