BBC’s treatment of its stars is a turn-off

- M. Busby, Birchingto­n, Kent

I wish that I could pay the BBC a monthly subscripti­on for the privilege of watching its programmes. After the Corporatio­n’s treatment of Springwatc­h presenter Martin Hughes-Games, who was fired for being ‘white and middleclas­s’ and then reinstated, this would at least enable me to cancel my contract with them to show my displeasur­e. No doubt many more viewers would follow suit, and we would see those in grossly overpaid positions suffer from revenue loss as punishment for their own incompeten­ce.
