±«Óătv in crisis, laughing at Trump and the elephant in the room

David and Simon discuss how the ±«Óătv is handling its crisis communications, if being laughed at is a PR problem for Donald Trump and the art of avoiding the unmentionable.

David and Simon discuss Huw Edwards, Strictly Come Dancing and the ±«Óătv in crisis. How is the corporation dealing with being in the news for all the wrong reasons?

Plus, “They’re eating the dogs, they're eating the cats” - is the global mockery following Donald Trump’s pet-eating accusations in his TV debate with Kamala Harris a PR disaster for the former president?

And what is the elephant in the room? Let’s talk about why the unmentionable is often at the heart of PR.
