BBC One controller Danny Cohen is to be the new director of television, director general Tony Hall has said.
The appointment completes Lord Hall's senior team which recently saw James Harding become director of news.
Mr Cohen, whose commissions include Call The Midwife and The Voice, will take over from the acting director of BBC TV Roger Mosey.
Lord Hall praised Mr Cohen's "ability to provide viewers with a mixture of high quality programmes".
Sadly he doesn't say a mixture of high quality television programmes ... and what?!
