Matt Wells has James Robinson and Somethin' Else managing director Steve Ackerman in the pod for this week's Media Talk, and, following BBC1 controller Jay Hunt's appointment to the top job at Channel 4, we ponder the latest round of TV executive musical chairs.
Jay Hunt wasn't the only big name to annouce her departure from the Beeb this week. Sir Michael Lyons has found his three-day week too arduous and he'll be stepping down as chairman of the BBC Trust next summer. Will anyone other than Mark Thompson sign his leaving card?
Also in the podcast, we hear Victoria Derbyshire give her Radio 5 Live boss Adrian van Klaveren an on-air grilling for "misleading" his bosses about his commitment to moving to Salford.
Finally, we look at Global Radio's plan to roll out the Capital brand across the UK; the News of the World's cunning plan to fund its imminent court cases; and Rupert Murdoch's Manhattan project.
