Sara, perhaps I have misunderstood his role. If he is there to carry out a Ben Goldacre style oversight to ensure 'good science' on the BBC then he is very well qualified.

The first thing to mind for me when impartiality and science was brought up was ethics which I know is the most fraught topic within the scientific community at the moment. Steve Jones is has nailed his colours to the mast on quite a few of these questions so he won't have the confidence of many scientists if he is called upon to make judgments in this field. If that is the case the appointment looks ill-judged to me with all due respect.
