Janice talks about the influence of Serge Gainsbourg with Duglas T Stewart and David Scott

Duglas T Stewart of BMX Bandits and David Scott of the Pearlfishers talk about Serge Gainsbourg, plus Jeanie Finlay talks about her documentary Orion: The Man Who Would Be King.

Janice talks about the musical influence of Serge Gainsbourg with the leaders of two Scottish bands, Davie Scott of The Pearlfishers and Duglas T Stewart of BMX Bandits (who has Gainsbourg's face tattooed on his arm).

Rod Jones talks about celebrating Idlewild's 20th year together with a new single (the last from the current album), new tour, and new album.

Janice hosts the Heraldfashion.co.uk Awards on Sunday, celebrating the online world of fashion, so she'll bring one of the winners (tbc) and Maurice Golden from award partners, Zero Waste Scotland into the studio on Monday.

It's also the BAFTAs on Sunday night, so TV critic Paul Whitelaw gives us his take on them, and shares his telly recommendation, documentary Orion by Jeanie Finlay, the bizarre and tragic story of a performer who sounded so much like Elvis he could never step out from his shadow. Jeanie then joins Janice and Paul to talk about the making of the film.

Janice's Single of the Week is Wars from Eliza Shaddad.

And it's Vinyl Verdict day, so in honour of all the award ceremonies taking place on Monday, we're asking listeners to pick between The Winner Takes it All by ABBA and Everyone's a Winner by Hot Chocolate.
