Fincham: time to dish the dirt

Talking of Peter Fincham and his MacTaggart speech, Monkey has bad news for hacks waiting for the ITV chief to let rip publicly over the Crowngate affair that led to his departure as controller of BBC1. Monkey hears a rumour that he's not planning to give the BBC a roasting. Instead, expect some ITV trumpeting. Revenge may be a dish best served cold via the overnights, but c'mon Pete. It's not too late to change your mind. Get the red pen out and spill the beans or Monkey might have to sneak out of the speech and head off early to Five's Friday night Edinburgh party.
