From Corporal to TV executive! Wow wee. I really do wish him luck here, seriously, but being wheeled out like the STIG on regular occasions by Seven executives would be a pretty empty existence.

"The star former member of the elite Special Air Service has made a remarkable career change, entering the cutthroat and competitive world of television management.

Roberts-Smith has been appointed deputy general manager of Seven Queensland, where he will have responsibility for all aspects of the network, including sales, production and marketing."

The key expression here is "cutthroat". He won't take no for an answer.

Await reports of customers of Seven Queensland advertising business being paraded with black bags over their heads at advertising contract renewal.

Please don't thank me. Effusive fawning and obeisance of disciples, mendicants, and foot-kissers embarrass me.
