Stardom and showmanship have long been part of politics, but are the lines blurring so that lawmakers are becoming celebrities? Has new media changed the way politicians talk to voters and the kind of people who go into politics? And, could an innocuous photograph at lunch spell election disaster?

Presented by Julia O'Driscoll with Sharon Coen from the University of Salford, Joe Twyman from Delta Poll and political trainer and author Paul Richards. Thanks to The Week's Kari Wilkin. Produced by Rich Jarman.
