The BBC has appointed an acting replacement for departing Chairman Richard Sharp, with Dame Elan Cross Stephens set to take over for up to 12 months.
Stephens, who currently sits as the Welsh member on the BBC Board, will act as Chair for a year or when a permanent appointee is selected by the government, whichever comes sooner.
She has spent her career working in broadcasting, the creative industries and academia and chaired the BBC’s commercial subsidiary from 2019 to 2022.
