ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Director of Audio and Music Tim Davie on his first year in the job, and Sky breaks ranks in a bid to host an election debate.

To the fury of other broadcasters, Sky has broken ranks in a bid to host an election debate with party leaders. What are the chances of a Brown versus Cameron head-to-head, and why has Sky decided to go it alone?

Tim Davie's first public appearance as ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Director of Audio and Music wasn't quite the one he may have planned; just six weeks into the job, the former Pepsi marketing man found himself defending Jonathan Ross and Russell Brand as the 'Sachsgate' scandal hit the headlines. Now, a year into the job, he talks about the salaries of ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ stars and managers, why James Murdoch is wrong to blame the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ for the commercial sector's woes, and why he wants to make ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ radio more distinctive.
