Senior BBC newsman Craig Oliver's appointment as David Cameron's new communications director – AKA "the new Andy Coulson" – generated no shortage of attention. But were the hills alive with the sound of his switch to the dark arts? Monkey only asks after we came across this picture of the former Ten O'Clock News editor taking part in what appears to be a staff production of the Sound of Music – complete with comedy lederhosen – alongside newsreaders Fiona Bruce and Sophie Raworth. Bruce looks like she is enjoying herself a little more than Oliver, whose grin (more like a grimace) is of the fixed variety. Oliver's the one on the right, appropriately enough.
