Bake Off Lawsuits Put Sky's Culture Under Scrutiny as Its £1.6 Billion ITV Takeover Nears

Former Love Productions managing director Letty Kavanagh has filed twin lawsuits against Sky, joined by complaints from two other Bake Off veterans, alleging wrongful dismissal and plans to cancel the show's spin-offs after Sky installed new management and agreed to sell Love to ITV Studios for £200 million alongside its £1.6 billion acquisition of ITV's media and entertainment division. Complainants question whether Comcast's US culture fits the expectations of UK broadcasting; Sky rejects the allegations and says it will defend itself robustly.
