“If you were making a DG appointment in three years’ time or three years ago, you might have come to a different conclusion,” says Roger Mosey, former head of BBC Television News, director of the BBC’s London 2012 Olympic Games coverage and current Master of Selwyn College, Cambridge. “But he is the man for now.”ITN chief executive Anna Mallett previously worked with Davie at BBC Studios, where she used to be group COO and managing director of production.
