New chief executives are to be announced tomorrow at the BBC Symphony and BBC Philharmonic. Both jobs have been vacant for almost a year as the BBC went through contortions about the future of its orchestras.

The only surprise is that the announcement will be made by Simon Webb, BBC director of orchestras and choirs, who was last seen trying to decimate them.

When did an executive last take executive responsibility for a failed policy at the bloated BBC?
