A BBC sports reporter has claimed he was unfairly dismissed by the corporation after blowing the whistle over an alleged flouting of Covid rules.
Ian Stringer appeared on hit BBC show The Apprentice before he was hired by BBC Leicester in 2008 to cover Leicester City matches.
An employment tribunal was told Mr Stringer was suspended in 2021 and sacked the following year for what the BBC says was misconduct.
The tribunal heard he had promoted a vehicle fleet management company on Twitter after being given free use of a BMW and an Audi.
