This hoarding opposite the old BBC Television Centre on Wood Lane in White City, London now bears a topical piece of art or grafitti. The piece appears to comment on the recent crisis around paedophilia engulfing the BBC.

The image, painted onto board and the stuck onto the hoarding depicts a young boy, wearing a BBC badge dropping what appears to a real "Jim'll Fix IT" badge into a drain.

The work was first noticed this morning (Thursday 29th Nov) and at time of writing (9am) has yet to be removed by the BBC.

9.15am - UPDATE - removed by BBC staff.

Whilst similar in style to the artist Banksy, the identity of the artist remains unknown.
