Each Friday, Punchline-Gloucester.com editor Mark Owen is joined by leading Gloucestershire business figures from a range of backgrounds to review Friday's national and regional newspapers, and discuss what is happening in their own business sector and in their own individual businesses.

Finally, they round off by picking the stories that have caught their eye in this week's Punchline-Gloucester.com.

The Business Breakfast Briefer show is sponsored by Hazlewoods Accountants and Business Advisers. 

This week's panel of experts were:

LANCE BRADLEY - ex-CEO Gloucester Rugby, who has recently stepped down after four years at the helm. He steered it through Covid-19 and one of the most challenging times in its history, sometimes making unpopular choices with fans.

ALEX COTTRELL - manager of Gloucester Growth Hub and member of the University of Gloucestershire business engagement team. There have been changes to GFirst LEP. How has this affected the Hubs and what's next?

ANGHARAD TRUEMAN - group lettings director for Andrews Property group. She has recently moved to the company and has a great grasp of the housing and lettings market in Gloucestershire.

GARETH FULFORD - award-winning chef and owner of Purslane Restaurant - a small, independent family-run restaurant in the heart of Cheltenham. The hospitality business is a tough gig to be in and Gareth has recently written to Alex Chalk MP outlining the difficulties in the sector.
