    And Andy Wilman has resigned too. Good.

    At least now it may re-emerge on another broadcaster with the keys to its success intact.

    Suggesting the BBC carry on with a zombie TG with replacement presenter/s was never going to fly.

    I wouldnt be surprised if the BBC decided to take the flak and reappoint the whole lot of them on a different contractual basis and carry on with the show.

    TG is a goose that lays golden eggs for them, they can survive a bit of criticism for a while once Jezza completes his public penance.

    I think its clear enough that netflix will be the next "broadcaster", I just hope they have the wit to make sure the arrangement allows FTA transmission after an exclusive download/streaming window (say 6 months), I'm sure ITV4 or Channel 4 would jump at it.
