Not sure why the Chairman of the BBC needs to hold the same political views as the Prime Minister. Surely you pick the best person for the job, not ask your mates down the pub who's up for it?

The "sixth" episode was NOT commissioned by the BBC. Sounds like the "episode" it's purely opinion.
Not necessarily to do with political views, but somebody you know. There's no job advert with interviews etc. They still have to be approved by Parliament and the Privy Council.
