The Great British Nostalgia Trip
Why are there so many reboots on TV? Is competition for viewers now so fierce that commissioners need trusted hits from yesteryear?
Welcome to the era of the reboot. Laurence Llewellyn-Bowen is doing up people鈥檚 living rooms, Ruby Wax is interviewing Hollywood stars and there are new versions of Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Blankety Blank and Sex and the City. So why are there so many rebooted formats? Is it because the 90s and 00s were the real golden age of TV after all? Or is competition for viewers now so fierce that commissioners need trusted hits from yesteryear?
Guests: Ruby Wax, broadcaster and writer; Clive Tulloh, executive producer of When Ruby Wax Met..., Layla Smith, head of Objective Media Group; Mark Sammon, executive producer of Changing Rooms.
