BBC Radio 4 - Front Row, Julian Barnes on Jean Dujardin's new film, Nick Hewer, new Bond exhibition

Julian Barnes on Jean Dujardin's new film, Nick Hewer, and a new James Bond exhibition.

Julian Barnes reviews The Players, Jean Dujardin's first project since The Artist; Nick Hewer from The Apprentice on his new TV series; Anthony Horowitz on a new Bond exhibition.

With Mark Lawson.

Julian Barnes reviews The Players (Les Infidèles), the new film by Jean Dujardin, the writer and lead actor of Oscar-winning movie The Artist. The film is a series of vignettes by different directors on the theme of infidelity, starring Jean Dujardin and Gilles Lellouche. 

Designing 007: Fifty Years of Bond Style is a new exhibition which charts the design and fashions of the James Bond films, half a century after Thunderball arrived in our cinemas. The golden gun, the flick-knife shoes, costumes, vehicles and set design are all on display. Writer Anthony Horowitz reviews. 

Writer and actor Ray Cooney pays tribute to Eric Sykes, whose death at the age of 89 was announced today. 

Nick Hewer, who found fame alongside Lord Sugar on The Apprentice, now moves onto agriculture. In The Farm Fixer he applies 40 years of business experience to aid struggling farms, starting close to his roots in Northern Ireland. He reflects on his TV career so far. 


Producer Jerome Weatherald.
