Jay says she's out of the BBC Hunt

Rumours are fun, but speculation can be tedious. Jay Hunt , supposedly, was seen at the BBC on Thursday at last week, no doubt having snuck out of Horseferry Road via one of the holes on the set of Million Pound Drop – a tale so entertaining that it has prompted a slew of phone calls to Channel 4 demanding to know if the programming supremo is indeed in the running for the director generalship of the BBC. "It's nonsense," says Hunt – who, in any event, spent Thursday at the C4 headquarters much in the way that Gordon Ramsay spends a day in Brixton Prison. Inside. Hunt, Monkey is reliably informed, is "sure she'd remember if she'd been interviewed" and will not be interviewed, which means she has no need to dress like Grayson Perry in order to slip past David Abraham and go back to her desk either.
