IT is one of the odd contradictions of modern media that the problem tends to generate much more heat than the solution – unless, of course, it’s a bottle return scheme in Scotland.

Set against that was a very ­different public dynamic – that Lineker was a ­hugely well-paid presenter and should be less ­vocal about sensitive issues from a ­privileged platform provided by the BBC. Why, for example, should a ­camera ­operator who is paid to work on a ­Wednesday be restricted on what they say on a Friday when they might be ­being paid by another broadcaster or, just as ­likely, ­sitting at home unemployed?

TV executives would argue that these are examples of personal ­perspective films but they are also a reminder that ­audiences are capable of distinguishing between a journalist with a viewpoint and a news presenter behind a studio desk. HARDIE’S report went further and ­identified a list of so-called “flagship” shows, where huge audiences experience a programme and “know” the presenters as faces of the BBC.

This was both permission and a veiled critique of Lineker’s original tweet which was unequivocally aimed at Suella ­Braverman and her extreme views on ­immigration.Well, one screechingly obvious point is that despite years of initiatives aimed at strengthening production in the ­nations and regions, none of the BBC’s ­flagship shows are produced in ­Scotland.
