Television production spread across the nations and regions of the UK is good for viewers, good for regional economies and good for cultural diversity.

He will express his strong support for the BBC, but he will also challenge the organisation to step up to the plate and serve the public by helping to sort out the future of public service broadcasting.
I’m also concerned about the regulatory structure of the BBC. Although the Trust has performed better than its predecessor, I don’t think it is a sustainable model in the long term. I know of no other area of public life where – as is the case with the Trust – the same body is both regulator and cheerle...
