Lens, by British Screen Forum

The first series will explore the institutional memory of public service broadcasting/media, by bringing together the most important players from the last twenty five years and give them the space to contribute their insights. The podcast intends to inform the current debate by reviewing the past: what was the case for and against public service broadcasting? What were the key principles and interventions that cut through, and which have enduring relevance today? In parallel we will be inviting academics, technologists, analysts and innovators from the UK and abroad to contribute their views on the current issues that should shape the debate.
