BBC staff complain of mice in their canteen
12 April 2012
A BBC staff member found animal droppings in a canteen sandwich while another saw a mouse run behind a serving counter, according to complaints made to its management.
More than 130 workers at the corporation have made official complaints about the food at TV centre in west London in the last two years. The member of staff who complained about the droppings wrote: "I could have been poisoned."
The BBC canteen has long been the butt of jokes by comedians. Peter Sellers once said: "Lunch is now being served in the BBC canteen. Doctors are standing by."
