Today Andy Silvester is joined by James Burstall, the chief executive of TV and film production company Argonon Group, whose credits include The Masked Singer and a host of critically acclaimed documentaries. James talks about pivoting the business as Covid-19 hit, preparing for an extended period without being able to film, and the role of the creative industries for the UK economy.

Andy also looks at gold hitting a record high, the US dollar hitting a two-year low, and the business impact of the British government’s so-called obesity strategy.
