Outgoing BBC Trust chairman Sir Michael Lyons was, dare Monkey say it, a touch de-mob happy today at the media briefing on the conclusions of the corporation's latest seemingly interminable strategy review. First he reduced the Daily Mail's Paul Revoir to silence and the rest of the hacks to laughter by responding to his question about digital radio with: "I might have an opinion but I'm not going to share it with you!" Then Patrick Foster from the Times asked Lyons what qualities his replacement should have. Without missing a beat Lyons bounced back: "A sense of humour when dealing with the press in all its wonderful and generous diversity." Touche Sir Michael, touche.
