TheTVController

Dear Ian. Re: “creative contract”, I’ve been there, done it, didn’t end well thetvcontroller.blogspot.com/2008/03/commis…

I am disgusted to hear that the @achrisevans show is offering historians neither a fee nor travel reimbursement to appear on the programme for 3½ hours during the Royal Wedding. While it pays Evans £2.5 million p.a., it is repugnant that the BBC expects experts to work for free.

Interesting isn’t it how so many of these former commissioning types come properly unstuck out in the dog eat dog world of indieland #kleiny broadcastnow.co.uk/indies/banijay…

Make no mistake, Horan is one of the good guys. But it’s amazing how in this game commissioning editors can ride on the coattails of shows that for whatever reason just happen to work, often without much interference from the channel.

Yes mate. Great point. No one ever thought of that before you. #edtvfest twitter.com/edinburghtvfes…

Great to see @markchapman enthused by Charlotte's session. I know she doesn't like football, but still pretend to be interested #edtvfest

How would you like it @cassianh if you were giving the #edtvfest session of a lifetime and audience spent it dicking around on their phones?

The tired, weary, beaten look on this lady's face sums up how we all feel having to listen to even more TV bullshit at #edtvfest

Looks like that rules me out of attending then #Edtvfest

Secret crush. Look at those bare legs #Edtvfest

Anyone fancy doing some #EdTVFest networking with me tonight? This is what happened 10 years ago. thetvcontroller.blogspot.in/2007/08/my-net…

Do you remember this encounter at Shoreditch House @laheggessey? Because I do. A lot. thetvcontroller.blogspot.in/2007/07/beaver… #edtvfest

Think those TV big wigs live it large at #edtvfest? You should see their minute-by-minute gruelling itineraries thetvcontroller.blogspot.in/2007/08/mgeitf…

If you've ever wondered what someone like Jon Snow is feeling right now after addressing #edtvfest read this thetvcontroller.blogspot.in/2007/08/glory.…

Really struggling to stay awake. #Edtvfest

This is exactly what being on a pointless panel at #Edtvfest at 1pm on a Thursday afternoon when no one important has arrived feels like.

Something itchy I wrote about @EdinburghTVFest. 10 fucking years ago #EdTVFest thetvcontroller.blogspot.in/2007/08/what-i…

Where's everyone drinking tonight? #EdTVFest
