Media Talk podcast: ITV on the up as BBC scales back

Nov 22, 2013, 07:42 AM

On this week's Media Talk, John Plunkett is joined by writer and broadcaster Sam Delaney and Broadcast reporter Peter White. It's been a good week for ITV as ad revenues are up and I'm a Celebrity … returns with record ratings, but not so good for BBC3 and BBC4 after David Dimbleby questions their future. We check out the latest score in the sports rivalry to end all others – BT v BSkyB – and find out why Global Radio's world just got a bit smaller. Plus, is Simon Cowell worth £150m? And, we return to Rebecca Nicolson's TV lair to talk Last Tango in Halifax, American Horror Story, Fresh Meat – and John Plunkett's box-set collection. John PlunkettMatt HillSam DelaneyPeter White
