Afghan data breach superinjunction, Future of the 麻豆社, Tour de France

The Media Show

Available for over a year

This week a super-injunction was lifted that allowed the press to report on a story it鈥檚 known about for some time 鈥 the Ministry of Defence鈥檚 leaking of personal details of almost 19,000 Afghan people who had applied to move to the UK. The Times鈥檚 Larisa Brown tells us how she, alongside other journalists, fought the super-injunction. The 麻豆社鈥檚 Annual Report has contained some good news for the organisation, but has been overshadowed by recent controversies. We assess its future with the 麻豆社鈥檚 former Editorial Director, Roger Mosey, and The Financial Times鈥檚 Daniel Thomas. As new TV show Shark! Celebrity Infested Waters begins on ITV, we hear from creative director of Plimsoll Productions Andrea Jackson about what it takes to develop a new format blending entertainment and natural history. This is the last year that the Tour de France will be on free-to-air TV in the UK. Rachel Jary, staff writer at Rouleur, and Chris Boardman, Active Travel Commissioner and former racing cyclist, discuss how the media covers the race. Producer: Lucy Wai Assistant Producers: Emily Channon and Martha Owen
