Read this: Yentob: BBC Managers expense claims reasonable - TV Radio, Media - The Independent

Summary: BBC executive Alan Yentob hit out at the corporation's critics today and attacked ministers for trying to interfere in its affairs. Figures released in recent weeks showed high level managers at the corporation claimed 400,000 on expenses over the last three years, spending public money on champagne, cigars, flowers, luxury cosmetics, food hampers and even a Doctor Who action figure. The lunch was held for three people, including agents, Mr Yentob said, to discuss future series of Lawson's show, and he said entertaining people in this way was a means of bringing in more business for the corporation. - independent.co.uk
