Beyond the Noise, which is published on alternate weeks, looks at some of the biggest issues affecting comms and PR. Download the podcast via Apple, Spotify or your favourite platform, or listen in your browser below.

Recent weeks have seen a spate of environment protests, not least during the Cannes Lions, where Greenpeace sent a flotilla of kayaks to WPP’s rented beach space. On Monday, protestors from Just Stop Oil glued themselves to a John Constable painting in the National Gallery. The group had earlier targeted Sunday's British Grand Prix.

Regular host Frankie Oliver and PRWeek UK editor John Harrington examine how the environmental campaign movement has evolved and what it means for PR agencies that work with fossil fuel clients.

We also reveal who is 'top' and 'flop' for their comms prowess (or not) in the past fortnight. The Government has been spared inclusion in the latter; the podcast was recorded before the spate of resignations on Tuesday evening.

Finally, having reached the halfway point of the year, we look at the best UK communicators of 2022 so far.
