The Media desk is a little Pollarded out, so we hope you've had your fill of revelations for today. There will be more as continue to sift through these 3,000 pages of evidence.

To summarise:

• Former chair of the BBC governors Sir Christopher Bland said that people, rather than policy or programmes, had been at fault and that a BBC crisis was inevitable every four to five years.

• Former Sun editor David Yelland disputed Patten's testimony that he was hired and fired, saying Brunswick had been stood down before even starting work.

• Jeremy Paxman described the BBC's handling of the Jimmy Savile scandal was "almost as contemptible" as the DJ himself, questioned what the BBC was doing promoting such "this absurd, malign figure" and that the corporation's response to crisis was "pathetic".

• Lord Patten blamed Chinese-style bureacracy and PR chaos for the crisis and said the executive was "frantically faffing about".

• There was a secret internal plan to make Peter Rippon the "fall guy" but it was scrapped.

• Texts revealed Helen Boaden described Patten as "the Great Panjandrum".
