Broadcast podcast Talking TV returns with news on the Shine/Endemol mega-merger, telly sexism and a glimpse into the world of ITV2 comedy Plebs. Joining host Jake Kanter is Outline Productions managing director Laura Mansfield and Broadcast columnist Steven D Wright. Together, they discuss the ramifications of Shine, Endemol and Core Media’s merger, including an insight on how Sophie Turner Laing might run the business. Sexism in TV newsrooms and a potential ITV Anne Summers comedy are also discussed. Elsewhere, Talking TV heads to post-house Splice where the creative force behind Plebs, brothers Sam and Teddy Leifer, are putting the finishing touches to the second series of ITV2’s comedy. Finally, find out if it’s worth watching ITV’s crime drama Grantchester and BBC2’s Gogglebox-style Studio Lambert format, The Kitchen.
