Andrew Marr is leaving the BBC

 

So Andrew Marr wants to get his own voice back:

• Personal announcement. After 21 years, I have decided to move on from the BBC. l leave behind many happy memories and wonderful colleagues. But from the New Year I am moving to Global to write and present political and cultural shows, and to write for newspapers.
• I think British politics and public life are going to go through an even more turbulent decade, and as I’ve said, I am keen to get my own voice back.
• I have been doing the Andrew Marr show every Sunday morning for 16 years now and that is probably more than enough time for anybody!

He's off to LBC and joining John Humphrys on Classic FM, among other things.
