Media Talk Podcast: Leveson inquiry, Jeremy Hunt and Bafta nominations

John Plunkett looks back over a huge week in the world of media, with the help of Dan Sabbagh, Lisa O'Carroll and Vicky Frost.

Lisa and Dan are fresh from the Royal Courts of Justice and they have all the fallout from James and Rupert Murdoch's performance at the Leveson inquiry, where Rupert Murdoch admitted there had been a cover-up at the News of the World.

They also discuss whether culture secretary Jeremy Hunt's position is now untenable following allegations about his closeness to the Murdochs while the BSkyB deal was being assessed.

John talks television with Vicky as the Bafta nominations are announced. Vicky also gives her verdict on the new Scandinavian drama The Bridge and there's another chance to hear Gary Neville's commentating outburst.
