When a story becomes big news

Topical programme about the fast-changing media world. The Guardian was reporting on Windrush for six months before the story hit the headlines.

Also, The Daphne Project, a new initiative to continue the work of Daphne Caruana Galizia, the Maltese journalist murdered last year in a car bomb, and Sky News' Cristina Nicolotti Squires on running a rolling news channel.

Andrea Catherwood is joined by Cristina Nicolotti Squires, Sky News Director of Content, Amelia Gentleman, The Guardian, Stephen Grey, Reuters special correspondent and member of The Daphne Project, and George Ruddock, The Voice managing editor.
