The Rest Is Entertainment

The Crazy Rise & Fall Of Cameo

47 minutes | Tuesday, 27 August 2024

Cameo was a runaway business success during the world's lockdown but it has cut staff and is struggling to even pay small fines. What has happened to the celebrity video service?

Have you heard of Fast TV? Richard and Marina take us through the new channels competing with some of the biggest names in streaming.

Finally on this episode we turn to video gaming, Black Myth: Wukong has flown in at the top of the charts. It is a first AAA game from a Chinese developer but it has come with some controversy and also tells us a bigger story of entertainment within China and how Hollywood is courting Chinese audiences.
