Download Press regulation, JacksGap, Bedlam
Newspaper publishers have lost a High Court battle to stop Government ministers going to the Privy Council to seek the Queen's approval for a new royal charter to regulate the press. We discuss what the next chapter in the story of press reform might be.
Steve Hewlett visits the offices of JacksGap, where he meets Jack and Finn Harries, the brains and talent behind the new media phenomenon. Now with 3 million subscribers, he talks to the twins about the online community they've created, and asks what's next for the business.
A new 4 part series called Bedlam on Channel 4 challenges the myths and taboos about mental illness, through access to the patients and staff of the South London and Maudsley - the world's oldest psychiatric institution. Dave Nath, series director, explains the challenges for the programme makers and how they worked with patients who lacked the capacity to consent.
Producer: Katy Takatsuki.
