Since last November, many local TV channels have been springing up around the country - with many more in the pipeline.

But the new projects haven't been without their critics and teething problems.

Does local TV represent an exciting new era for journalism and for journalism jobs? Or is it a missed opportunity?

This week's guests:

  • Julian Calvert, senior lecturer in journalism at Glasgow Caledonian University
  • Luke Gaydon, vice-president of media (EMEA) at Brightcove
  • Anthony Rose, co-founder and president of social television platform Beamly
