BBC bosses have braved their fair share of demonstrators outside New Broadcasting House in central London – but on Tuesday they were confronted by a more mild-mannered group of TV fans. The five women took to the BBC's doorstep to protest against its decision to cancel The Hour, the drama about a news show starring Ben Whishaw and Dominic West. They may be light on numbers on the ground, but a hefty 21,000 people have signed this online petition against calling time on The Hour. Perhaps the new director general, Tony Hall, will save the show? As the rather incongruous placard says: "It's not impossible when it's possible."
