In this week’s episode of The Screen Podcast, our team is at the Series Mania festival, which has seen leading execs from the European TV drama sector descend on Lille this week.

Screen’s Europe editor Tim Dams and French correspondent Rebecca Leffler join host Wendy Mitchell to discuss the challenges faced by European drama producers in the post-‘peak TV’ era and why co-producing is now key.

The team also discusses continued consolidation amongst Europe’s big players, how Europe is now luring Hollywood talent, and picks out some of the hottest new dramas at this year’s festival.
