Media Talk podcast: Leveson faces MPs and commercial radio hits 40

This week Hugh Muir is joined by media journalist Maggie Brown and the Guardian's Lisa O'Carroll, to discuss the week's media news. On Wednesday and Thursday, Lord Leveson appeared in front of a House of Lords committee and the Commons select committee for the first time since the publication of his report into press ethics. We talk to select committee member and MP Paul Farrelly about what happened. Also this week, the new director general of the BBC, Tony Hall, gave his first major speech about the future for the corporation. How did he do? And as Britain's first-ever commercial radio station, LBC celebrates four decades on air, we ask if life begins at 40? And finally, Rebecca Nicholson discusses the Downton Abbey rape scene controversy, the discovery of missing Doctor Who episodes and Channel 4's Masters of Sex.
