Chris Philp pronounces Nuclear as "Nookiller". That's all you need to know about him.
Well done, @ox.ac.uk. Another one on the conveyor belt of dross that you've served up to us.

Politics live presenters and guests. One Cambridge graduate, three Oxford graduates.
Not done this for a while, but:
CAMBRIDGE

Another one off the public-school/Oxbridge conveyor belt. Pathetic.

BBC Newcast. Adam Fleming and Faisal Islam.
Newscast portrays itself as being the unconventional cousin of BBC's traditional news model. But...
Adam Fleming: Private school, then Oxford.
Faisal Islam: Private school, then Cambridge.
Yawn.

Merlyn Thomas
Not previously noticed BBC reporter @merlynthomas.bsky.social. Good enough reporter but yet another one off the Oxbridge --> BBC conveyor belt. It's usually Oxford for BBC News but this one's a Cambridge alumnus. Must be their idea of diversification.

Cambridge alumnus Simon Schama, and Oxford alumnus Frank Cottrell-Boyce, telling us how jolly inclusive the 2012 Olympic Games ceremony was. Boyce wrote the ceremony.

4/5
New Year, no change. Left, right, centre... the common theme is that flagship BBC programmes are obsessed with booking Oxbridge alumni.

Team Cambridge has been a bit quiet, recently. Back with a bounce.

Somewhat surprised that Whately had an education, but it was only PPE.

Sunday's Lorraine Kelly show lightened the chip on my shoulder. Annoying. Only 1/5. Early Xmas shopping for the elites?

They'll always have Jo. 6/9 yesterday, so they had to calm down a bit.

After a couple of quiet days, normality resumes. 4/5.
* Margaret Hodge letting the side down, although she went to (private) Oxford High School.

Another poor showing for The Elect; 2/5.
* Rupert Lowe is a politician for anti-establishment Reform UK. In his case, anti-establishment means being educated at a private school, then a career in banking.

Bit of an Eton bonus. Not sure about presenter Leila Nathoo.
