Reporting the Man City Scandal

Journalists who reported on Manchester City's 'sham' contracts and a look at how celebrities are cast for major TV shows.

The Premier League alleges that Manchester City arranged sham contracts with commercial partners to conceal more than £830 million in funding. BBC Sport's Laura Scott, Der Spiegel journalist Christoph Winterbach, Nick Harris from Sporting Intelligence and Sky News sports correspondent Rob Harris explain how the story developed and the media's role in reporting it over time.

With Celebrity Traitors and Strictly Come Dancing returning to television, celebrity talent executive Stefania Aleksander describes the process of selecting the personalities who help make these entertainment formats successful, and the behind-the-scenes work that shapes some of the UK's most-watched shows.
