Inside the BBC: What really went on

The News Agents

Monday, 10 November 2025 - 35 minutes

Over the last 48 hours The Newsagents have spoken to more than 30 people between us - insiders at the BBC - to try and work out the facts of what actually happened and when. Both the Director General and the CEO of News resigned over the weekend, so why are some talking about a “right wing coup“? Why did the apology take so long to arrive? And why is Trump now threatening the state broadcaster with legal action?
