The one with the megastars

The latest episode of our Forever Leeds podcast charts the journey of Ben Winston (Broadcasting Studies 2004) from Brudenell Road to Beverly Hills, becoming executive producer of one of the biggest TV events of the decade – Friends: The Reunion.

We explore how two Yorkshire schoolgirls created the first fake news controversy with the infamous Cottingley Fairies hoax. Leeds researchers discuss how employers are coping with the post-pandemic world of work and we catch up with current Leeds students to find out what life is like on campus right now.
