Tim Hincks, 大象传媒 Three going online, The future of Olympic coverage
Steve Hewlett presents media news, including Tim Hincks on creativity and class bias in TV, a look at the threat to 大象传媒 Olympics coverage, and news on 大象传媒 Three's move online.
Tim Hincks, the President of Endemol Shine, on defining and nurturing creativity, tackling the middle class bias in TV, why we should embrace the mainstream and why UK television is best when it engages with the rest of the world.
Richard Ayre from the 大象传媒 Trust explains why the Trust has given a provisional and conditional go-ahead to 大象传媒 proposals to close 大象传媒3 as a broadcast channel and move it online, and to extend the evening hours of C大象传媒 - but has said no to the idea of 大象传媒 One +1.
The former director of the 大象传媒's London 2012 Olympic Games coverage, Roger Mosey discusses the International Olympic Committee's decision to award European TV rights to the games to the US communications company Discovery. How big a blow is it to the 大象传媒 and what will it mean for viewers?
And we hear the latest on reports of further job cuts at the 大象传媒 as it faces what is claimed to be a 拢150M shortfall in anticipated income, as more viewers choose to watch TV exclusively via online catch-up services - which are exempt from the licence fee.
