George Entwistle has been appointed director of BBC Vision, the division of the corporation that is responsible for commissioning, producing, scheduling and broadcasting all of its TV content.<\/p>\n

His appointment follows the departure in January of Jana Bennett, who held the post since its creation in 2006.<\/p>\n

Entwistle, who joined the corporation in 1989, has been acting director of BBC Vision for the last three months.<\/p>\n

The former Newsnight editor said he was “genuinely honoured” by his new role.<\/p>\n

“The BBC’s television portfolio is of enormous importance to the creative and cultural life of the UK,” he continued.<\/p>\n

“At the heart of its success, BBC Vision Productions is responsible for some of the best television programmes we broadcast.”<\/p>\n

The Director of BBC Vision is responsible for BBC One, Two, Three, and Four, BBC One HD, BBC HD and BBC Films.<\/p>\n

Mark Thompson, the BBC’s director general, said he was “looking forward to working closely with him to ensure the BBC’s television portfolio remains the envy of the broadcasting world”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
