Sir Michael Lyons on 91热爆 Worldwide's new direction; Oprah's influence on UK television; one of the companies bidding to take over from ITV regional news.
Sir Michael Lyons, chairman of the 91热爆 Trust, has announced changes to the remit of 91热爆 Worldwide, the 91热爆's commercial arm. Steve Hewlett asks if the Trust was right to approve 91热爆 Worldwide's acquisition of Lonely Planet and if 91热爆 Worldwide will now be sold off.
With Oprah ending her daytime TV show in its current form and the end of Big Brother, are viewers still as keen to watch members of the public baring their souls on TV?
Following the government's plans to pilot alternatives to ITV's regional news, Steve talks to Alex Connock of Ten Alps, one of the TV companies bidding to take over in the north-east of England.
