The chief executive of the Royal Opera House and the BBC's former director of news, Tony Hall, has been appointed the corporation's new director general.

BBC Trust chairman Lord Patten said Mr Hall was "the right person to lead the BBC out of its current crisis".

His journalism experience would be "invaluable as the BBC looks to rebuild its reputation", Lord Patten said.

The appointment follows the resignation of George Entwistle earlier this month after just 54 days in the job.

Mr Entwistle quit on 10 November after a Newsnight report led to Lord McAlpine being wrongly accused of child abuse.

"The past eight weeks have been very traumatic for the BBC," said Lord Patten's statement to staff.

"But this is a significant day for the BBC," that "marks the beginning of a new phase," he went on.

"The key challenge will be re-establishing our reputation with the public. I hope you will all support Tony Hall as he goes about the important work of doing just that."
