  • The Global Jigsaw: The Kurdish issue: Part two
    Will the call for the PKK to disarm end in a new era of peace for the Kurds, or is this just another turn in a tortured history? In February, Abdullah Ocalan, the imprisoned leader of the Kurdistan Workers Party, known as the PKK, released a jaw-dropping written message to his followers from his jail cell, calling for the group to lay down arms and disband. In this series we explore the Kurdish issue - the persecution, the resistance and their attempts to form a state. We ask what does the future hold for one of the largest stateless ethnic groups in the world scattered across Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran.

  • The Media Show: Britain's steel crisis and SNL’s leap across the Atlantic
    A critical moment emerged in northern England as the UK government intervened to prevent the closure of a major steelworks, one of the last of its kind in the country. The intervention followed the discovery that blast furnaces were on the brink of shutdown due to the site's Chinese owners halting essential raw material orders. Ed Conway, Economics Editor at Sky News, and Jo Makel, Senior Reporter for BBC regional television, explain their approach to reporting the story. Also on the show, how a call by tech leaders to abolish intellectual property laws has reignited debate over copyright in the digital age. Dr Hayleigh Bosher, a legal expert from Brunel University London, outlines the implications of such proposals. And Saturday Night Live, the iconic American comedy sketch show known for launching global stars and sharp political satire, is being adapted for the UK. Journalist Caroline Frost and comedian Tamar Broadbent discuss whether the format will be a success. Presenter: Katie Razzall Producer: Lisa Jenkinson Assistant Producer: Lucy Wai
