Why indies shouldn’t fear Channel 4’s production arm - Derek Drennan, founder of Nest Productions talks to us about his business, and why IP isn’t the only game in town.

Also on the show: as the industry mourns the passing of Alan Yentob, former BBC exec Paul Robinson takes us back to his 90s heyday.

All that plus: the Telegraph is sold AGAIN - will that be that? And, in the Audio Network Media Quiz... we channel Jimmy Carr.

That’s all happening in this edition of The Media Club. Come on in!
