About this episode
Paramount-Skydance is the only show in town for ownership of Warner Brothers, with a deal valuing the movie maker and media empire at $111bn. But even if it seals the deal with shareholders and boards it still needs to get past regulators on both sides of the Atlantic. We head to the Balkans, where a multi-billion-dollar rail link between Belgrade and Budapest opens for freight today. We also hear about the secret to Pokemon's success, as the video game characters turn 30.
