Olly Mann presents insight, analysis and gossip from the creative media industries - this week with guests Paul Robinson (director of Creative Media Partners) and Matt Deegan (managing director, Folder Media).

This week, as the ink dries on the BBC’s biggest deal in history to take control of Dave and his sisters Gold and Eden, will a licensing agreement with Discovery be enough to fund a looming gap in the licence fee?

Also, who should archive user-generated content - and does it matter if it disappears into the ether? Reality TV stars ask for more support from producers, and we preview the first slate of shows you (may) be watching on Apple TV+.

Plus, as always, the Media Podcast quiz.
