As the clock ticks to towards midnight, and managers move in to run BBC News for 24 hours, let's hope BBC Creative Director Alan Yentob is blasting through to a useful shift. A little earlier this evening, he was spotted in the front row of Paul Smith's offering for London Fashion Week.

Earlier this week, Alan opined on the return of James Purnell to the BBC, as Director of Strategy and Digital, after his sojourn in more overt politics. "He was one of the few Government ministers who you actually found going willingly to exhibitions and concerts all the time", said Al, and, more cryptically, "By bringing audience under one roof, it allows us to develop a more intuitive digital strategy".  That must be good, mustn't it ?
