BBC bosses questioned by MPs over payments
BBC Trust chairman Lord Patten has called the size of severance payments made to senior BBC managers a matter of "shock and dismay".
Lord Patten and director general Lord Hall have been questioned by MPs on the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) over £25m paid to 150 outgoing executives.
He said he was not told some payoffs went beyond contractual terms.
