Lesley Douglas: Life after Brand

Lesley Douglas has given her first post Radio 2 interview to Music Week. But, naturally, being the voice of the UK music industry MW decides to waste this valuable scoop by putting it behind a paywall, so instead we're relying on the MediaGuardian report:

"The music industry were so supportive, but it is very strange to read about yourself because I don't like courting press and singularly failed in that in the last few weeks. But the support I got from the music industry was amazing," added Douglas.

"It's hard for me to talk about the past, which is why I'd rather talk about the future. It's been a horrible four weeks in many ways but, as I say, the support I got personally was amazing."

Aha. So, instead of anything that might be interesting, we get a lot of stuff about her new job at the lucrative-but-dull Universal TV division. The BBC will be as delighted as the Mail annoyed that she has chosen to keep quiet about the Ross-Brand business that cost her job; it might not be too cynical to believe that she is clearly keeping one eye on a return to the BBC at some point and is keen to help the scars heal more quickly.
