Quote: BBC1 supremo Jay Hunt professed her love of the original show [Fall & Rise of Reginald Perrin] - aired between 1976 and 1979 - and declared that "one of her first acts in the job had been to look into reviving the series".

Which would be better expressed as "one her first acts in the job was to admit that she and the UK creative industry had a complete absence of new ideas."
