The TBI Team are back from MIPTV with plenty of news and gossip – including a discussion on exec fashion trends, that giant Donald Trump banner on the Croisette and the latest front in the international format wars. Plus, we say farewell to Producer Brad this week – our man on the buttons is set for pastures new in South Africa.

The TBI Podcast has gone gonzo this week – producer Brad is away and Jesse Whittock and Stewart Clarke are in the studio alone. They talk about the key talent heading to Cannes for MIPTV over the next few days (just who is 'Garlow' Barlow?), plus key new stories such as Barclays new £100 million 'SVOD' fund and the latest exec hires at Vice. See you on the French Riviera NB: the podcast was recorded before Banijay Group and Abot Hamieri settled their grievances over the Best of All and All Against 1 formats

This week the TBI Podcast is short and sweet! For some time now, the TBI editors have been buried in a dark bunker (otherwise known as TBI Towers) readying our MIPTV content, but they've found 20 minutes to discuss Jeff Zucker addressing Donald Trump at INTV in Jerusalem, David Abraham's impending exit from Channel 4, and other big recent news stories.

This week’s pod features Gossip Girl's Ed Westwick, writer Jimmy McGovern, journalist Mischa Glenny and director Hossein Amini talking about their new shows at the BBC Worldwide Showcase. Plus, Stuart Thomson from our techy sister title Digital TV Europe reports from Barcelona about the content players wooing the telcos at the gigantic Mobile World Congress trade show, and Jesse Whittock and Stewart Clarke discuss YouTube TV, Netflix’s European spend and the future for ITV

The TBI Podcast is back, and we’ve got news, views and a shiny new intro format for you to enjoy. TBI editors Stewart Clarke and Jesse Whittock discuss this week’s BBC Worldwide Showcase, the various London screenings that have spawned around it, and a chaotic Berlinale International Film Festival. We also dissect the stories making headlines in international TV – who really won the Discovery-Sky carriage war, and what are Peter Fincham and Tim Hincks planning for their new indie business Expectation?

It’s two weeks after MIPCOM and the TBI team have survived the madness to bring you the key market takeaways, top talent interviews and subsequent breaking news. Eighty-year-old scriptwriting genius Andrew Davies tells us about his mission to save Les Miserables from the theatre, documentary hard nut Ross Kemp explains how he stays cool under pressure, and we report on the lay-offs at ITV, Netflix's latest content funding raise and AT&T’s huge acquisition of Time Warner.
