Theatre director and actor Cora Bissett talks to Ricky Ross about her life and career.

Award-winning theatre director and actor Cora Bissett talks to Ricky Ross about her life and career.

Award-winning theatre director and actor, Cora Bissett, talks to Ricky about her life, and tackling challenging issues including mental health, sex-trafficking, and refugees, in her work.

Ricky visits Gordon Aikman, who has Motor Neuron Disease, and his husband, Joe Pike, in their home to find out how they're dealing with the changes that the advancing illness brings.

With the ongoing story of refugees travelling across Europe, we hear from 3 Edinburgh locals, Denis Rutovitz, Akeel Umar, and Liz McArthur, about why they felt compelled to help those caught up in the migration from conflict areas.

Vicky Cosstick, author of 'Belfast: Toward a City Without Walls', discusses the sectarian walls, gates and fences which continue to divide communities in the city.

As the Royal National Mod kicks off in Oban, Reverend Lorna MacDougall takes a trip down memory lane and reminisces about participating in various provincial and national Mods throughout her childhood.

And it's the stuff of legend with the right amount of religion and mystery to make it a literary and Hollywood staple. Dr Juliette Wood, from Cardiff University, who specialises in medieval folklore and Celtic tradition, and film critic Paul Gallagher, shine a light on the Holy Grail.
