How Toy Show: The Musical went wrong for RTÉ

In The News - Podcast autorstwa The Irish Times

The Late Late Toy Show is Ireland's most popular TV show every year by a distance. But an ill-fated attempt by RTÉ to exploit its valuable 'IP' has ended up the subject of discussion and dissection in multiple Oireachtas committees as a controversy over payments and governance continues to grip the broadcaster. We learned this week that Toy Show: The Musical lost €2.2 million in its first year. How did it go so badly wrong? And what does the story tell us about the organisation RTÉ has become and where it is going? Bernice Harrison asks Hugh Linehan. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
