BBC Radio Scotland - The Janice Forsyth Show, 30/12/2014

A session from Sophie Ellis Bextor, plus writer Neil Gaiman and illustrator Chris Riddell.

Another chance to hear an extended interview and live session with Sophie Ellis Bextor, plus an interview with writer Neil Gaiman and illustrator and cartoonist Chris Riddell.

Another chance to hear Sophie Ellis Bextor in conversation with Janice from earlier this year for a special extended interview and perform two live tracks from her current album 'Wanderlust'.

In this special edition Janice revists two interviews with award winning writers. Neil Gaiman is a prolific writer of novels, comic books, graphic novels and much more. His book, a collaboration with artist Eddie Campbell, is a tale of revenge set in a mythical Scotland and is performed along with a string quartet. It'called The Truth Is A Cave In The Black Mountains and Neil joined Janice in the summer to give us a taste.

Author, illustrator and political cartoonist Chris Riddell has collaborated with Neil on projects including Coraline and The Graveyard Book. Earlier this year he picked up the Costa Children's Award for Goth Girl and the Ghost of a Mouse and dropped into the studio to tell us about it.
