BBC presenter sorry for Manx talk rule breach

A TV presenter has apologised to the BBC after failing to declare thousands of pounds he was paid for a talk  on the Isle of Man.

It's one of a 11 events Mastermind host and journalist Clive Myrie didn't tell the corporation about - despite rules saying its staff have to declare earnings on outside events.

Mr Myrie was chair of a panel discussion at the Isle of Man Energy & Sustainability Centre's GreenTalks Live in front of an invited audience.

He attended the event last November and, according to the Times newspaper, was paid around £10,000.
