This week’s episode is something different—a live panel discussion featuring voices from across the UK TV industry, including Philip Ralph, Ashley Catherine Dick, Marcus Anthony Thomas, Nasreen Ahmed, and Vito Milazzo.

After a brutal year of job losses, production slowdowns, and financial struggles, we’ve made it to 2025—but what happens now? Many hoped things would improve, but if anything, the industry’s challenges are deepening.

In this live discussion, we explore:
🎬 How we got here – from the post-COVID content boom to streamer cutbacks and broadcaster struggles.
💰 The reality of surviving the downturn – with over 50% of workers still out of work and increasing financial pressure.
🔮 What needs to change – exploring solutions, industry trends, and the fight for a more sustainable future.
