BBC Radio Scotland - The Janice Forsyth Show, 26/02/2014

Janice Forsyth says happy birthday to Spitting Image. Plus live opera in the studio!

Janice Forsyth celebrates 30 years of Spitting Image, plus Harry Potter's Matthew Lewis discusses his new role and Maxwell Caulfield and Faye Tozer talk about Singin' in the Rain.

On the show today...

Live opera in studio with the stars of Scottish Opera's 20th anniversary Highlights Tour.

As Spitting Image turns 30, co-creator Roger Law and voice actor Steve Nallon look back at the secret of its enduring success.

Novelist Glenn Patterson remembers 1970s Belfast as we discuss his new book The Rest Just Follows.

Matthew Lewis - who played geeky Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter films - tells us about putting down the wand and picking up a gun for the new series of Afghan war sitcom Bluestone 42.

And we'll be Singin' In The Rain with Maxwell Caulfield and Faye Tozer - the stars of the rain-drenched stage show that's just opened in Edinburgh.

All that and some great music too!
