Comedy. Cross-dressing ex-Premier League footballer Ryan Chelford's appearance on Match of the Day did not go well. A summit meeting is arranged.

Cross-dressing ex-Premier League footballer Ryan Chelford's appearance on a late-night, midweek edition of Match of the Day did not go well. Host Gary Lineker and pundit Alan Shearer were literally lost for words. But the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ in general and, in his role as head of values Ian Fletcher in particular, are under pressure to find an on-screen role for Ryan as quickly as possible. A summit meeting is arranged to include heads of football, inclusivity and a late curve ball in the shape of head of diversity to try and find a solution to a problem that is getting increasing attention on social media.

To complicate matters, Fiona Craig, the senior civil servant with responsibility for charter renewal negotiations, is visiting the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ to see what a normal day in the life of the corporation looks like.

Meanwhile, the campaign to launch user-generated content platform Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Me gathers pace with David Wilkes still keen to take ownership of the idea he originally borrowed from ex-intern Will Humphries.
