British Telecom said Thursday that Sir Iain Vallance, who has been its chairman since 1987, will be replaced by Sir Christopher Brand, who has headed the BBC's board since 1996. Vallance has been criticized as British Telecom's debt has mounted and its stock price plummeted in recent months. BT was once a state-owned monopoly.
