The BBC has transferred staff from BBCWales to help out.
Due to the name it is being researched for long Covid effects.

They

This is a different use than the traditional singular they, which is used to refer to a person whose gender isn't known or isn't important in the context, as in the example above. The new use of they is direct, and it is for a person whose gender is known or knowable, but who does not identify as male or female.

Clear enough..

In the good old days they were known as it hide

You know you guys are expending a lot of precious brain power on a mistake. At this point we can’t afford to lose any. However I found the “ mistake “ interesting as well.

I am of an age where I like to be known as anything you damn well please to use. If I can hear it then that is a positive.
