The Political Party

Show 317 - Rob Burley

Rob has produced the biggest political shows on TV, Question Time, The Daily Politics, PoliticsLive, The Andrew Marr Show and many more. He is obsessed with long form political interviews and is deeply annoyed by a lack of them on television. This is a great account from someone on the inside about how political interviews are planned for television, how they play out and how and when a producer should intervene. It's also a defence of high-quality political broadcasting and features a superb in-depth account of Andrew Neil v Boris Johnson in 2019.  Buy Rob's book 'Why Is This Lying Bastard Lying To Me?' here: <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Why-This-Lying-Bastard-Searching/dp/0008542481" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.co.uk/Why-This-Lying-Bastard-Searching/dp/0008542481</a> Buy tickets to The Political Party, live at The Duchess Theatre here: <a href="https://nimaxtheatres.com/shows/the-political-party-with-matt-forde/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://nimaxtheatres.com/shows/the-political-party-with-matt-forde/</a>Forthcoming guests include:5 June: Philip Hammond19 June: Margaret Beckett3 July: Joe Lycett2 October: Jason Williamson Plus more to be announced!  Follow @mattforde on Twitter for the latest news Email the show: <a href="mailto:politicalpartypodcast@gmail.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">politicalpartypodcast@gmail.com</a>  Hosted on Acast.
