...she was "very knowledgeable about the arts"...

And that, remember, is the Kirsty Wark I once heard on a BBC 'arts programme' referring to something called the 'Alduhburg Festival'. Yes, she'd never heard of Aldeburgh...

Rather like that other fraudulent fart, Will Gompertz...

Gompertz W. I once heard mentioning "Berlioz's opera 'Cellini'". Now, as you may know, there isn't a Berlioz opera called 'Cellini', though there is a Berlioz opera called 'Benvenuto Cellini' which *an opera buff* will sometimes refer to informally as 'Cellini' ("What did you think of the 'Cellini'?", etc.). Which means that any arts broadcaster who talks to the general viewer about "Berlioz's opera 'Cellini'" is revealed as a clueless oaf who is repeating something he doesn't understand and shouldn't be in the job, any more than someone who tells the audience about "Shakespeare's play 'The Dream'".

What is the total number of people the BBC has in jobs they can't fucking do?
