Who’s pitching what on the Croisette? What shows are selling? How busy are the delegates who have made the trip to Cannes? And what are the hottest trends in factual and scripted formats around the world?

It’s a MIPCOM special show direct from Cannes this week as I chat with Virginia Mouseler from The Wit, Loren Baxter from Off the Fence, Samuel Kissous of Pernel Media and Larry Bass from ShinAwil to find out how the first Mipcom for two years was for them. Plus I catch with Mipcom boss Lucy Smith to get the stats on this week’s event.
