Stephen Brook hosts this week's Media Talk, and he's joined by Steve Busfield and John Plunkett to analyse Andy Duncan's much-anticipated and now-confirmed departure from Channel 4. What sort of legacy does he leave behind, and who are the main candidates in line to succeed him?
Sticking with commercial television, we hear from Tess Alps, chief executive of ThinkBox, about the culture secretary's U-turn over product placement. What's Ben Bradshaw up to?
Also in the podcast, Simon Mayo confirms he'll be taking over the Radio 2 drivetime show. But what does the future sound like at Radio 5 Live?
Finally, James Robinson reports from the Royal Television Society conference in Cambridge with all the news and gossip from the gathering that we really should have been invited to.
