How sustainable will be paying for TV production of what essentially would be linear radio shows without 'investment' ie costs is debatable
Perhaps retooling the linear channel to be a News Grouo showcase of cross platform content is a sensible halfway point, with Evans and the music sessions from Virgin, talk sport shows, Times Radio shows, best of online assets like Uncensored and talk tv as the sustaining feed
Who'd have bet GBN would outlive TalkTV [potentially]
I seem to recall Chris Evans talking about them installing new TV cameras in his studio a few weeks back.
