Unnatural order

It's getting a bit rufty-tufty in BBC News under James Harding.

Sports Editor David Bond has left; Religious Affairs Correspondent Robert Piggott is going back to general reporting; Caroline Wyatt moves in from the Defence brief.

Now Tom Giles has been shifted from his role as Editor of Panorama, to what looks like "a special project", beloved of the BBC when needing to oil the wheels of job movement. From June, for six months, the programme will be run by Ceri Thomas, currently Head of News Programmes, on a package of £166k. This will produce an entertaining organogram where Ceri reports via his current Deputy, Jim Gray, who also holds the title of Head of TV Current Affairs, on a package of £155k.
