Kilroy Host to be determined

One of the strange features to the l'affaire Kilroy-Silk has been that it sees me and the Mighty Aaro in agreement:

Mr Kilroy-Silk is not being gagged; he is free to say what he likes. But the BBC is not under any obligation to use presenters who, in other guises, offend and insult a substantial section of its own licence-fee payers.

I particularly loved the cover of the Daily Express with a headline that was something like 'KILROY: STOP GAGGING ME' - I know the Sexpress is losing readers, but it didn't really seem much like gagging to me.

Also, I doubt that the BBC having to find 'a way to fill 200 hours of programming a year' as this story reports, is really much of a concern to them. Daily shoutathon programmes survive well enough all over the world presented by people not named Robert Kilroy-Silk, and I doubt the BBC would have to look that hard to find a replacement host - I'm sure Nicky Campbell is having some interesting chats with his agents at the moment.
