'You’ve got the bunny that came out the top hat' – Sir Paul McCartney

'You’ve got the bunny that came out the top hat'– Sir Paul McCartney

Sir Paul McCartney discusses his album New, which features happy-clappy sing-along numbers, lounge grooves and more edgy rock. And, as Sandra Bullock’s film Gravity becomes a box office phenomenon, with audiences heading back to see the film in IMAX and 3D, we talk to the director Alfonso Cuarón. 

BBC News Entertainment Reporter Lizo Mzimba brings us the showbiz roundup. Plus, cross-dressing conceptual artist Grayson Perry delivers his second BBC Reith Lecture with a witty exploration of the age-old question - what is art?
