The publication of Chris Smith's report on the future of the British film industry this week was in danger of being overshadowed by David Cameron's comments about supporting commercially successful movies. This week on Media Talk we hear from Chris Smith about his report, and get first reactions from culture minister Ed Vaizey and Guardian culture editor Alex Needham.

Also in the podcast, we hear the latest from the phone-hacking scandal, as News International pay out in the high court and Ian Hislop takes to the stand in the Leveson inquiry.

And finally, your host John Plunkett talks detectives and babies with television pundits Vicky Frost and Tara Conlan.
