Facebook Instant Articles, Eurovision evolution, UKTV success
Whether Facebook Instant Articles will change how news is consumed, why Australia are at Eurovision this year, and why UKTV's repeat channels are so profitable. With Steve Hewlett.
As Facebook's latest innovation - Instant Articles - gets underway, we discuss the pros and cons for Facebook, news organisations and the public. Could this innovation be a plan to take over the news business or a way for publishers and broadcasters to reach a larger potential audience more quickly?
Question: When is Australia part of Europe?
Answer: When it comes to Eurovision.
This year there'll be an Australian entry in the competition. Ingrid Deltenre, Director General of the European Broadcasting Union tell us why - and which other non-European country she'd like to have on next year.
And why UKTV's family of channels is so profitable - could it be all these Top Gear repeats?
Presenter: Steve Hewlett.
Producer: Paul Waters.
