Eddi Reader on growing up in Glasgow and music, and the Rwanda genocide 25 years on.

Scottish singer songwriter Eddi Reader on her life and career; TV review of 'Chimerica'; The People's Passion play touring Scotland and the Rwanda genocide 25 years on.

One of Scotland’s finest singer songwriters Eddi Reader speaks to Cathy Macdonald about the childhood that shaped her and why she’s still out there doing what she does best…making music. 

As Holy Week begins, Cathy finds out about a cross-denominational and ambitious stage production of The People’s Passion travelling to five different towns in Lanarkshire, with producer/director Liz Blackman.

Twenty-five years on from the genocide in Rwanda, foreign affairs writer David Pratt and James Smith of Aegis Trust, which works to prevent genocide, discuss how the country has healed and lessons we can learn from their peace efforts.

Journalist and photographer David Pratt reviews new Channel 4 thriller ‘Chimerica’, which explores the ethics of journalism and the manipulation of images and facts. 

In our occasional series on the things, people and places that inspire, Dundee based artist Sion Parkinson takes us on a magical forest trip to go foraging for mushrooms. 

50 years ago Jennie Lee, the daughter of a Fife miner, created one of the most revolutionary educational institutions in the country. The Open University introduced the idea of distance learning for all. We find out how it changed the life of adult learner Mandy Murray, and Susan Stewart, director of the OU in Scotland tells us why it’s still relevant today.
