BBC news presenter Clive Myrie: Off Air: Failed to fill his BBC money Forms in
 

[BBC broadcaster Clive Myrie
has apologised for failing to declare
at least £145,000 for external work,
he undertook outside his role at the corporation.
Figures suggest the 60-year-old newsreader
earned at least £145,000,
but it could have been more than £255,000,
with the exact figure likely to be
somewhere in between, according to
retrospective entries to the
BBC's external events register.

Apologising in a written statement on X,
Myrie blamed the error on
"several administrative issues"
and said he will not be taking part
in paid external events for the
"foreseeable future",
except for some pre-existing commitments.

"An apology - I've had several
administrative issues, and I didn't fill
out the correct paperwork
for some of my external public events,
so they haven't been published
until now," he said.]



[Myrie, who is also the host of
BBC quiz show Mastermind,
made 28 retrospective entries to the
register, dating back to March 2021,
for roles including host, presenter,
interviewer, moderator and panel chairman.

He received more than £10,000 on five occasions,
including an event hosted by the
Isle of Man's Energy and Sustainability Centre.
On a further 18 occasions,
he was paid between £5,000 and £10,000,
while he charged between
£1,000 and £5,000 for five events.
He was also paid by organisations including
the Football Association,
American Express and
the National Residential Landlords Association.]
