Abstract

Coming to air at a particularly difficult time for TV talk shows and situated within a much-derided (though popular) genre, the paper explores the dynamics of Trisha (ITV 1998-2004) by looking at the ways in which commercialism and tabloid sensationalism coexist with a form of public service broadcasting to produce a complex and sometimes contradictory programme.
