BBC Radio 2 - Patrick Kielty, Kelly Holmes and Steven Knight

Oscar-nominee Steven Knight talks about Locke and Kelly Holmes celebrates an anniversary.

Patrick Kielty talks to Steven Knight about Locke, Kelly Holmes celebrates an anniversary, Daniel Rigby discusses Big School, and Rebecca Front describes her perfect weekend.

Dame Kelly Holmes is celebrating the 10 year anniversary of her Double Gold from Athens, by opening her own cafe in her hometown in Kent.

Multi-talented Steven Knight is an oscar nominated director, writer and producer and is the man behind Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, Peaky Blinders, Stephen Frear's Dirty Pretty Things and David Cronenberg's Eastern Promises. His latest film Locke has been described as one of the most nail biting thrillers of the year.

BAFTA winning comedy actress Rebecca Front will be telling Patrick about her perfect weekend.

Rebecca is best known for her work in The Thick Of It, Lewis, Death Comes to Pemberley, Knowing Me Knowing You and Outnumbered.

She has also just published Curious - an autobiographical collection of stories in which we learn, among other things, why a Mexican wave is a symbol of oppression, how to navigate a conversational cul-de-sac with a French vegan train driver and why keeping a pet rabbit on a lead is perfectly normal.

Another BAFTA winner Daniel Rigby also pops in to tell Patrick about the new series of Big School.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
