Carol Vorderman has said she is leaving her show on BBC Radio Wales because of the corporation’s new social media guidelines

The 62-year-old former Countdown star has had a Saturday morning show on BBC Radio Wales for five years.“However, despite my show being light-hearted with no political content, it was explained to me that, as it is a weekly show in my name, the new guidelines would apply to all and any content that I post all year round.
