Et tu, David Jason?

The Only Fools and Horses star Sir David Jason has hit out at his former BBC bosses, accusing the corporation of "empire-building". Speaking to the Sun at the launch of his Channel Five series The Show Must Go On, he said: "The BBC expanded too far, too fast, into areas it had no business in. I think there's a lot of dead wood in there that needs pruning ... It's a good thing it is being shaken up." That might have ruined the former Del Boy's chances of a slot on 6 Music, then.
