Festivals, Facebook, and The Great British Bake off

Inside Bristol Live

In the latest instalment of Bristol Live's podcast, our reporters discuss an upcoming festival, the paper's use of social media, and the return of the Great British Bake Off.
Entertainment specialist Robin Murray is first up in the studio to preview Downs Festival, which has its third ever edition tomorrow (Saturday, September 1).
He tell's guest host Krishan Davis who to look out for, the up and coming Bristol musicians involved and how this festival isn't just about the music.
Reporter Tristan Cork then delves into how we use Facebook - and specifically Facebook groups - in the modern-day newsroom.
He explains how we will try and hone in on our target audience for very local stories by posting in groups that are specific to that area, and why.
Krishan also has a chat with reporter Alex Wood about the return of the much-loved Great British Bake Off, which has particular significance for Bristol this year thanks to Bryony Williams.
The Bristolian mum is a contestant in this year's competition, and Alex discusses how she got on and what her success could mean for the city. Disclaimer: there are minor spoilers.
