Sky TV is hiking their prices. A near-12% increase will come into effect for Sky Sport viewers this May. The company says the rise in price will allow it to keep investing in local and global fixtures, and it comes as Sky fights to keep its New Zealand Rugby rights. Octagon Asset Management Equities Analyst Paige Hennessy told Mike Hosking that while no one likes a price increase, investors see it as a reflection of reality. For Sky to make a profit, they have to reflect any cost increases in their prices – especially if NZ Rugby is unwilling to see rights deflation come through in their space.

In this episode of Talk2TheHand, we dive into the fascinating evolution of Sky TV, the network that revolutionised British broadcasting. From its scrappy beginnings in the late 1980s to becoming a powerhouse in sports, entertainment, and news, Sky's journey is one of bold risks, fierce competition, and game-changing innovation. We explore how Rupert Murdoch's ambitious venture transformed from a struggling satellite operation into a household name that reshaped how the UK watches television. We start by revisiting the early days of Sky Television, when it battled for survival against British Satellite Broadcasting (BSB). The infamous "satellite wars" of the early '90s set the stage for Sky's dominance, culminating in the dramatic merger that created BSkyB. We'll unpack the challenges Sky faced—financial losses, technical hurdles, and skepticism from traditional broadcasters—and how clever marketing and strategic partnerships helped turn the tide. Of course, no story about Sky is complete without talking about its groundbreaking acquisition of Premier League broadcasting rights in 1992. This bold move didn't just change the face of British football; it revolutionised sports broadcasting worldwide. We discuss how Sky Sports redefined live sports coverage, introduced new technologies, and created an entirely new viewing culture around football, boxing, cricket, and more. But Sky wasn't just about sports. We delve into the network's expansion into movies, original programming, and news, including the launch of Sky News, which brought 24-hour rolling news coverage to the UK for the first time. From cult classics on Sky One to the rise of Sky Atlantic's prestige dramas, we explore how Sky diversified its content to compete with streaming giants in the digital age. Finally, we reflect on Sky's lasting impact on British media and culture. With the rise of streaming services like Netflix and Disney+, how has Sky adapted to stay relevant? What does its acquisition by Comcast mean for its future? Join us as we unpack the story of Sky TV—a tale of ambition, innovation, and the ever-changing landscape of television. Talk2TheHand is an independent throwback podcast run by husband and wife, Jimmy and Beth. Obsessed with 90s nostalgia and 90s celebrities, we'll rewind the years and take you back to the greatest era of our lives. New episodes bursting with nostalgia of the 90s released on Tuesdays.

We also explored inspiring examples from the luxury industry, illustrating the unique vision and perspective women consultants can bring to their business.

[00:03:12] Discussion on the characteristics and psychology of the luxury market and its clients. [00:04:43] How successful luxury founders like Coco Chanel and Louis Vuitton viewed their industries differently. [00:06:42] The need for women to acknowledge their worth in high-ticket consulting.

[00:31:46] Introduction to Elizabeth's practical book on building a luxury business. Key Takeaways: Luxury isn't just about high prices; it's about value, quality, exclusivity and the unique mindset of the business owner. True luxury brands stand out because they think differently and aren't afraid to redefine the industry. Many women consultants undervalue their expertise. Selling high-ticket or luxury services requires a shift in mindset to understand your value and price higher to attract serious clients who respect your time and expertise. Selling high-ticket consulting services requires building trust, credibility and connection. Focus on relationship building, such as networking in niche spaces and leveraging referrals, to connect with potential clients in a meaningful way. When people spend a lot of money, they pay attention because they want to get their money's worth, and they don't waste your time. If it's cheap, that's when people keep coming back, asking for extras, and doubting the value of your work. Quotes: “Everything expensive is not necessarily luxury, but everything luxury will be expensive because of the way it's produced.” – Elizabeth Solaru “Seeing things differently is so valuable. And I think women underestimate that, because it's second nature to you, you think the common sense that you have, what you do, is not valued or not valuable, but things become valuable when you put a premium on what you charge. Because like I said, you're charging for your time, your energy, even your aura, because there are people that walk into a room and people feel uplifted, they feel there's possibilities, they feel they can do anything. Not many people can inspire that.” - Elizabeth Solaru “Women will look at a job, a CEO job, and think, 'I only meet eight out of ten of the requirements, therefore I won't apply.' Men will look at the same job and if they can only do three things, say 'I'm going to give it a go. I'm going to apply.'” – Elizabeth Solaru “Something that I've seen consistently in the ten years of my business is that when we're not charging enough, we don't find clients who respect us. We don't find clients who particularly want to do the work. And although it can feel counterintuitive and like you're going to price yourself out of the market, actually, it's better if you want to do deep consulting work.” – Jessica Fearnley “You need to find an organization in pain, an organization that has stepped on a nail or something, and they need to fix it now. And in fact, the quicker you fix it, the more they'll pay you.” – Elizabeth Solaru Useful Links Elizabeth: The Luxpreneur: How to Start and Build a Successful Luxury Brand Elizabeth's website - luxurybusinessemporium.com Elizabeth's LinkedIn Jessica: Get in touch with Jessica to discuss your consulting business Leave a rating and review for the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast Jessica's LinkedIn Guest Bio Elizabeth Solaru is a multi award-winning luxury business consultant, author, and world renowned cake artist.

Sky TV appears to be in the box seat to secure top-level rugby rights, including the All Blacks, for another five years – at a drastically reduced rate – but fans could yet find some games on a free-to-air channel such as TVNZ or New Zealand Rugby's own digital platform. The deal is reportedly worth $85 million a year, well below the existing $111 million annual deal expiring at the end of the year. Hamish McLennan, chair of REA Group, told Jason Pine that broadcasting deals are the central pillar in terms of driving the game beyond pathways and grassroots. The challenge, he says, is the balance between free-to-air content and what you keep behind a paywall. “You know, do you take the money or do you try and ensure that you reach the maximum amount of viewers?” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

‘Reign' Season 10 really is serving you ICONS, and today we are joined by the Spanish superstar Úrsula Corberó. Úrsula has been working in Spain since she was six years old in shows like the huge teen drama ‘Física o Química', but in lockdown she shot to international fame when she played Tokyo in the Netflix drama, ‘Money Heist'. It blew up, becoming one of their biggest Netflix shows ever, and saw Úrsula gain 20 million Instagram followers overnight. Now, Úrsula is ramping up the intensity again starring in Day of The Jackal which follows the Jackal, an elite sniper and assasin played by Eddie Redmayne and his wife Nuria, played by Úrsula, who slowly starts to discover his secret life. It's SO GOOD and you can watch it on Sky TV and NOW. I LOVED talking to Úrsula as she really says it as it is. We bonded over the exhaustion of being in our mid thirties, how over ‘growth' we are, setting boundaries and she drops some game changing life advice I immediately started using, so hope it will be for you too! Úrsula also tells me about how overwhelming overnight fame was, how being told to behave as a child actor kept her quiet into adulthood and how she now is done with behaving. YES BABE! There are also some amazing words on why we need to stop saying we are lucky and lean into how deserving we are for our success and I really hope this episode inspires you to step into your power. If you do love the episode, get in touch and tell me all about it. You can find me across socials @joshsmithhhosts and don't forget to come back for next week's episode where I will be chatting to the incredible Richard E. Grant!

In our first live podcast recording at the 2024 CBI Annual Conference, Andy speaks to Dawn Airey CBE, one of the most remarkable figures in British media. In front of an audience of business leaders and policy makers, they discussed resilience and reputation along with the crises and triumphs that have defined her career. Dawn has spent her career thriving on challenge, and along the way earned a reputation as a bold and unapologetic trailblazer. For some who couldn't keep pace she became Scary Airey or Zulu Dawn. From her early days at ITV navigating a world she has described as rampantly sexist, to launching Channel 5 where her passionate leadership and sharp vision put the channel on the map, Dawn's career has been nothing short of a masterclass in resilience. But it has also included some significant setbacks, including when she left Sky TV to join what she thought would be a global media business, but which turned out to be something, just eight days later, to something very, very different. Today, as Chair of the Women's Super League, Dawn is shaping the future of women's football. In this short episode she provides some brilliant lessons for anyone looking to be a stronger leader.

The Big Bank Theory is a podcast about Exeter City FC. In this episode, we put our best foot forward for Sky TV, and we finally answer the question that almost everyone has been asking.
If you watched Parliament, as I did yesterday afternoon, you could feel it building. Question Time focused largely on the Treaty Principles Bill. There was a growing angst, Gerry Brownlee the Speaker spent far too much time calling for order, it was low rent, which isn't unheard of, but full of needless aggro. Then came the so-called debate. There were 11 speeches, lead off by architect of the bill David Seymour who spoke, as he has through this whole shambolic process, very eloquently. He was followed by Willie Jackson, who also spoke very passionately, until he called Seymour a liar and got booted out of the House. Most of the rest of the speeches were boring and said what you thought they might say, depending on what side of the House the speaker came from. National were in the invidious position of defending their position while not defending the bill. They can blame Christopher Luxon for this because how he let it find its way to the place it has is beyond me. As a coalition deal you either let it ride or kill it before you sign a deal in the first place. But this half-way House is the worst of all possible worlds, and it looked like it, as he was on a plane to South America and the poor sods, he left behind had to do their best. The whole affair, sadly, was not what you might want, or expect, from our House of Representatives. Beyond anything else, we appear to have lost the ability to debate cordially, to agree to disagree, to listen to other views, to be mature, to be adult and to accept that we don't all have to be on the same page. By the time the Māori Party burst into a haka and wrecked it all, Gerry rolled his eyes and suspended proceedings for the day. I caught up with the fall out on Sky TV. God knows what the Australians make of it. This sort of stuff also goes global, so more embarrassment there as well. We look ridiculous. We look like amateurs, we look like petty, little children b*tching at each other. We look like Kamala Harris supporters on TikTok. I think, and hope, we are better than this. That lot yesterday in the House of Representatives is not us. It's not representative. Because if they are, we are buggered. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's a film of profound beauty, humor and humanity, and although Gallo claims the movie is non-autobiographical, it nonetheless draws from deep reservoirs of personal experience in its depiction of alienation and the grace that can bring broken people back from the precipice.We discuss the career of Vincent Gallo and his status as perpetual provocateur, often exchanging barbs with fellow flimmakers and critics alike, including a notorious saga with the late Roger Ebert. Then, we talk about the film's depthful exploration of its thoroughly unlikable character as portrayed by Gallo, and how he manages to make Billy Brown a remarkably captivating misanthrope through his particular manner and distinctive speaking cadence. Finally, we discuss Gallo's recent foray into the MAGA movement and adjacent vestiges of the right, and why his work's portrayal of ecstatic revelation feels antithetical to the politics of resentment that defines the modern conservative movement.Follow John Semley on Twitter.
