Finally read the OP.
Surely Calderwood doesn't going on ski-ing holidays - where did that come from?
Martin Gilbert - sounds like the OP has a chip on his shoulder, as AAM are doing very well these days and are a hugely respected financial group. Whether Gilbert spends enough time on AFC is a different matter though.
Aye it was superb stuff. I enjoyed the 10 minute "making of" at the end of each programme. Must have been quite a shock for the cameraman when the whale came out of nowhere.
Why are Levein, Jefferies, Butcher and Hughes on this list?
Surely we could do better than that?
There's no point in binning Calderwood if that is the calibre of replacement that is being bandied about.
