That Sackur wanker must be 'avin' a larf!

From Sky News:
Writing on X following the announcement, Sackur said it was "sad news" personally, but also "much more important, I think it's depressing news for the BBC and all who believe in the importance of independent, rigorous, deeply-researched journalism".

He added: "At a time when disinformation and media manipulation are poisoning public discourse, HARDtalk is unique - a long-form interview show with only one mission, to hold to account those who all too often avoid accountability in their own countries."
