- ‘We are talking to other terrestrial broadcasters,’ says director
- BBC has lost rights to other marquee events in recent years
The London marathon could leave the BBC for the first time in its 40-year history after the event director, Hugh Brasher, revealed he was in talks with other broadcasters.
The race on Sunday is the last covered by the contract which was signed in 2018. And while Brasher stressed the event would remain on terrestrial TV, he said organisers were now exploring other opportunities.
