Channel 4 reveals their new drama slate. Heat magazine’s Boyd Hilton takes us through the ambitious line-up.
Also on the programme: as Bradford’s year as city of culture continues, Lisa Campbell joins us to talk about the upcoming Creative Cities Convention, where she has just taken over as director.
All that, plus: why Netflix might be turning to podcasts for growth, the BBC provides evidence that AI can’t summarise news stories... and, in the Media Quiz... we look at the reboots.
That’s all happening in this edition of The Media Club. Come on in!
