Victoria Derbyshire says she was not told BBC was axing her show
Presenter ‘devastated’ by move, which is part of wider changes to be unveiled next week
Victoria Derbyshire only found out about the axing of her award-winning BBC show via media reports, she has revealed in a series of tweets in which she also said she was “absolutely devastated” by news of its demise.
As the broadcaster faced a backlash on Thursday over the closure of the BBC Two current affairs and investigative show, staff were informed that the move was part of a wider series of changes to be unveiled next week.
