There are few spectacles more unpleasant than a television presenter trying to hang on to a
job.When one of the presenters of the BBC program Crimewatch resigned recently,rather than
suffer the inevitable indignity of being unfinished and replaced by a younger version,he made
the usual hurt noises about his masters* overemphasis on youth.People in the media listened
sympathetically before he slid from view to join the ranks of television's has-beens.

The presenter's argument,that the views don't care how old you are so long as you can "do the
job," unfortunately is not backed up by the evidence.When you're on TV, viewers are always
thinking about whether you're losing your hair or your figure and,lately,whether you've had
cosmetic work done.This is what they're actually doing when you think they're listening to

the
wise things you say. Viewers actually don't understand much of what the job involves,they just
see you sitting there looking the part.Like the ability to pet one's head while rubbing one's
stomach,TV presenting is just one of those sills.Some of those who possess this skill can hit the
big name,inevitably as they become more attached to the lifestyle this brings,however,the more
likely they are to overstate the skill.

In reality,if somebody is paying you a lot of money to do a job,it's often on the tacit （/心照不
宣的）understanding that you may be fired suddenly-it*s part of the deal.Unlike football
managers,TV presenters pretend not to understand this.If they've had many years being paid
silly sums to read a script from an autocue （自 动题词机），it's difficult for them to acce

Something similar eventually awaits all the people who are currently making fortunes that
would have been unimaginable to earlier generations of presenters.One day we'll decide that
their face no longer fits and they'll be dragged away complaining about the same ageist policy
from which they no doubt previously profited.Show business is a brutal （残忍的）
business.The one thing it reliably punishes is age,particularly among women.That's why,at the
age of fifty,female TV presenters become female radio presenters and why girl bands planning
to re-form need to get it done before they're forty,after which it will get too hard for everyo
