Following the announcement of the deal that's taking Adrian Chiles from the BBC's One Show to ITV, we speak to the man at ITV who's bringing him over: Peter Fincham. What difference will it make to ITV - and is he looking to tempt other BBC presenters? Former Sun editor David Yelland's accused the print media of being "entirely partisan" when it comes to reporting on politics, saying that was his approach when he was in charge. How are the newspapers responding to the story that has emerged since last week's leaders debates? Former Sun political editor George Pascoe-Watson discusses this with the Guardian's executive comment editor, Georgina Henry. Last week, The Media Show heard from Jeremy Hunt on the Conservative plans for the media and next week it will be the turn of Labour's Ben Bradshaw. Today, Don Foster of the Liberal Democrats talks to Steve Hewlett about his party's plans. And, as Adrian Chiles is not the first popular presenter to move from the BBC to ITV, we talk to one of the big tv names who has gone before....to ask what advice he would give him.
