John Plunkett writing for the Guardian included sections of George Entwistle's email to BBC Vision staff in his report:
"As you know, Roger is currently director, London 2012 - and, as such, responsible for the magnificent Olympics unfolding on our screens. He exec produced the opening ceremony programmes and carried for longer than anyone the burden of knowing it really was Her Majesty the Queen who was going to turn around in our mini Bond film."
"He [Mark Thompson] said the process of making a permanent appointment as director of BBC Vision would begin later in the autumn."
