Episode Synopsis

News: BBC comedy commissions and savage cuts at ITV daytime (4:00)Ncuti Gatwa replaced by Billie Piper - well, yes and no. The fall-out continues from that Doctor Who episode (17:00)And, speaking of shock endings, the dangerous high-wire act of ending your series on a cliffhanger. From Mork and Mindy via My So Called Life to The Wheel of Time and how streamers force writers to keep the twists and tension coming, whether in service of the show or not. (37:25)We recommend: (52:30)Mid Century Modern (Disney+)Yes Minister (BBC iPlayer)
