BBC director general Tim Davie is stepping down after 20 years, citing intense demands and the damaging row over a Panorama film, while insisting the Board backed him. His exit, alongside the resignation of BBC News chief Deborah Turness, who said 'the buck stops with me' and rejected claims of institutional bias, follows a Telegraph report alleging misleading edits of a Donald Trump speech. Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy praised Davie and promised support through the transition, as Chair Samir Shah called it a sad day and said the Board respected his decision.
