About this episode

Social media has been an important way for the new Prime Minister to get his message across, but where does that leave the traditional media? Katie and Ros discuss with Lizzy Buchan, Political Editor of the Daily Mirror and Chair of the Lobby; Jennifer Gerber, Burnham’s former special advisor; and the creator and founder of Slow News Day, Tom Nicholas.

Also on the programme, broadcaster Andrew Neil shares why he’s moving to Youtube for his new weekly podcast series The Andrew Neil Report. Plus, the filmmaker Eline Van der Velden explains why she’s created the controversial AI actor Tilly Norwood, with Deadline’s Jake Kanter analysing the response from Hollywood.
