southern malawi. you are watching bbc news. i want to bring you a bit more now and that dispute between gary lineker and the bbc. a little earlier i spoke to our media correspondent david sillito who explained how unexpectedly things have escalated for the bbc. very clearly this has escalated quickly for the bbc, something they were not expecting and something they wanted to resolve as quickly as possible, because what was a political row about tweets and an issue about impartiality has now become about disruption to services. but gary lineker surrounded byjournalists this morning as he went and took his dog for a walk, did not say anything. there are clearly conversations going on behind the scenes about all of this, but how do you resolve it? well, tim davie, of course, we have been talking about, the director general of the bbc. he was in washington, wasn t he? i believe he is on his way back now.
