Making moves

Sport
Alisher Usmanov, 54
Arsenal investor
The Russian mogul already owns around a quarter of the club and now a big shareholding is up for grabs after director Nina Bracewell-Smith quit the boardroom in a rumoured bust-up.

In the spotlight

Sport
Giles Clarke, 55
English Cricket Board, chairman

TV & Radio
Mark Damazer, 53
Radio 4, controller
Damazer is having to massage egos after Today presenter Ed Stourton was unceremoniously eased out in favour of North America editor Justin Webb. While he has done a decent job since 2004, insiders think the opera fan may be thinking about life beyond Radio 4.
