Game On!

Join Rory Cellan-Jones and the team at the League of Legends World Championship.

Brandon Beck, CEO of Riot Games, the company behind the massive title League of Legends talks to us about the growth of e-sports. Plus, League of Legends team manager Mike O'Dell, and top player xPeke, give their take on the business and career possibilities in gaming tournaments. In celebration of computing pioneer Ada Lovelace, we hear from scientists and engineers Dr Suze Kundu, Abbie Hutty, and Dr Jen Gupta, how they would close the gender gap in technology. And, we catch up with indie games developer Arran Langmead, who is creating a video game from home.

Presented by Rory Cellan-Jones, with special guest Suw Charman-Anderson, founder of the event Ada Lovelace Day.
