As the TV crisis continues, a Murdoch enters the chat. We take a temperature check on the sector with former UKTV commissioner and now boss at indie Square Pears’, Iain Coyle.

Also on the programme: we reveal the one-take secrets of Adolescence, as well as the winners of the Broadcast Press Guild awards.

All that plus: as Trump plans to close Voice Of America, Kate Bulkley is here to assess its impact on western media more widely, and if the World Service can step up - and, in the Media Quiz, we’re bringing back Jeopardy.
