Talking TV #79: UKTV Live

Broadcast: Talking TV

Talking TV is at UKTV live, the multichannel broadcaster’s annual event showing off their latest shows and talent, where we caught up with comedian Matt Forde about becoming Dave’s answer to John Oliver and Amanda Holden, who is hosting W’s forthcoming Zig Zag produced show I’ve Got Something To Tell You. We look at Netflix’s entry into the tween genre after Lime joined the exclusive club of British producers to win a commission for the streaming service as well as the return of The Crystal Maze. We have previews of National Treasure, Channel 4’s Operation Yewtree-style drama starring Robbie Coltrane and Julie Walters and We Love Sitcom, a celeb panel quiz bookending the BBC’s recent sitcom season. One of US, a dark BBC1 crime drama and Sheree Murphy-fronted BBC daytime cooking competition Yes Chef. Guests include Pretzel TV boss Steve Wynne and Kerfuffle founder Steven D Wright.
