It’s Friday and that can mean only one thing, folks: another edition of International Insider. Jesse Whittock here to take you through another week in film and TV.Climate chaos: Our intrepid Weekend Editor Caroline Frost braved the travel chaos in Europe to make her way to the mega ad confab Cannes Lions in France this week.

While she was there to hear from the likes of Ryan Reynolds, Ted Sarandos and Regina Hall, the week was dominated by a series of stunts pulled by climate cmpaigners Greenpeace.

After ad man-turned-activist Gustav Martner stormed the stage to protest against fossil fuel ads, a group of protestors stormed the WPP beachfront before Caroline was herself caught up in an incident as a pair of campaigners scaled the roof of the Palais des Festivales and halted delegates from entering the building.

Police eventually retrieved them and our reporter was allowed on her merry way, just time in to see Netflix’s co-CEO Ted Sarandos speak.
