Penny Smith meets actress Tara Fitzgerald and photographer Terry O'Neill.

Penny Smith meets actress Tara Fitzgerald and the photographer Terry O'Neill. Plus Peter Bradshaw reviews One Day, and we take a look round the Dulwich Picture Gallery.

Penny Smith meets the photographer Terry O'Neill. Key chronicler of 1960s London, Terry discusses his new London exhibition of photographs, which include previously unseen images of The Rolling Stones, Jean Shrimpton, Britt Ekland and Peter Sellers, Goldie Hawn, Ursula Andress and Frank Sinatra.

Actress Tara Fitzgerald talks about her role in Arthur Miller's Olivier Award winning play Broken Glass, in which she co-stars with Anthony Sher. 

Producer of Opera Holland Park James Clutton tells us about its production of Fantastic Mr Fox.

Peter Bradshaw reviews this week's film releases, including the much anticipated adaptation of David Nicholls' best-selling novel One Day.

Judith Mackrell has the latest from the world of dance.

Next month at London's Victoria & Albert Museum around 100 crafted curiosities ranging from a life-sized crochet bear to a six-necked guitar and extreme cake decorations go on show. The Power of Making celebrates traditional ways of making things and new innovation too - like a prosthetic glass nose made by glass-maker Matt Durran. Matt, along with Daniel Charny, the exhibition curator tell us about the show.

And as the Dulwich Picture Gallery celebrates its 200th year, we take a look at its bicentenary exhibition 'Masterpiece a Month'. With works from Constable to Hockney to look forward to in the coming months, the gallery is presently home to a self portrait by Van Gogh.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
