To me, this seems to make two points.
One - BBC 'Production' must be broken up, as there's no longer any point in the BBC employing them.
Two - the fact that all the ex-BBC people "have done very well" (to quote a young Mr Grace!) is an excuse to get rid of the rest of them, as the BBC will now be "BBC Commissioning".
As for anyone with any craft skills, well, "if you learned that from your time with the Beeb, good luck to you, but we don't want/need you anymore - until there's a Royal Funeral/Coronation, that is! In the meantime, go work for one of the new production companies" who'll then find out just why the Beeb's cost are 'different' (as SiS found).

The only ones who come out of this with any glimmer of hope are those in BBC News - which, given his heritage, is only to be expected.
Short of selling out to Sky News - or maybe ITN - no one else could provide such worldwide coverage.

But this shows he's really started campaigning for the renewal of the Charter when it's still some way ahead!!
