With Mark Lawson, including an interview with singer and songwriter Ray Davies, formerly of The Kinks, who has written a musical set in an Ilford dance-hall in 1959.
Presented by Mark Lawson.
Robert De Niro and Al Pacino are back in their comfort zone - the mean streets of New York - playing cops who are on the hunt for a serial killer. Does critic Jason Solomons feel a case of deja-vu in the film Righteous Kill?
Former Kinks frontman Ray Davies leads a cast of 13 and a live band in his new musical, Come Dancing, set in and around the Ilford Palais in the 1950s.
One of the great successes at the National Theatre in London was their initial run of War Horse - an adaptation of the World War One novel by Michael Morpurgo. With an updated second run of the play underway, Mark takes a closer look at the star of the show, the lead horse, Joey. He heads backstage to meet him and the puppeteers who bring the tragic cane-and-plywood animal to life.
