Media Talk Podcast: The Voice v Britain's Got Talent

In this week's Media Talk Podcast we look at the battle to end all television battles. Well, until the next one. BBC1's The Voice v ITV1's Britain's Got Talent. Or Danny Cohen v Simon Cowell (and Peter Fincham) if you prefer.

John Plunkett is joined by executives behind both shows and Wayne Garvie, who knows a thing or two about Saturday night shiny-floor entertainment shows, gives his pre-match verdict.

Also on the podcast, Dan Sabbagh runs the rule over the runners and riders to be the next director general of the BBC and looks at the impact of the budget for TV and film producers.

He is joined by Vicky Frost to look back on the two big awards shows of the week – the Press Awards and the Royal Television Society gongs – and Doctor Who is getting a new companion. But who is she?
