Another week, another Media Talk, and a busy week with meltdown (again) at ITV. Budgets slashed, departments closed and hungry shareholders to feed. Emily Bell and Kim Fletcher pick over the bones of the beleaguered commercial broadcaster.
We also check in with Alex Bellos, the renowned chronicler of all things Brazilian, who's got some extraordinary tales of the huge Brazilian press pack following the World Cup in Germany.
Mark Sweney reports from the Cannes advertising festival, and Gareth McLean is back, and more provocative than ever. Listen to the end to hear Emily corpse for the first time.
