BBC Radio Scotland - The Afternoon Show, Paul Whitehouse & Bob Mortimer, Mike D’Abo from Manfred Mann and A Clockwork Orange.

Paul Whitehouse & Bob Mortimer on their new book - Gone Fishing.

Following the success of their TV series, Paul Whitehouse & Bob Mortimer discuss their new book, Gone Fishing.

Today, two comedy greats talk life, friendship and the joys of fishing! 

Following the success of the BBC's Gone Fishing series, comedians and long-time friends Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse discuss their new book - Gone Fishing: a love letter to the joys of angling, the thrill of the catch and the virtue of having ‘a right daft laff with your mates’.

Shona McCarthy - Chief Executive of Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society previews this year’s events at the world's largest Arts Festival! 

Following the critical acclaim for RADIO DAYS - a four volume re-issue of MANFRED MANN releases, singer MIKE D’ABO, talks about his time with the band in the 60’s as well as more recently, his solo song-writing career and much more..... 

Grant will also host our regular Book Group Discussion: 20 years on since the death of Stanley Kubrick, we revisit the novel that led to one of his most controversial adaptations - Anthony Burgess’s classic title A Clockwork Orange; depicting the exploits of a gang of feral teenagers (or ‘Droogs’) on a wild spree of robbery, rampage and "ultra-violence".

All that and June 2019 marks the 70th anniversary of the original UK release of KIND HEARTS & CORONETS, the jewel in Ealing Studios’ crown, and arguably one of the finest British films ever made! 

Grant will discuss the theatrical re-release of the film which will be returning to cinemas in gloriously restored 4K; a wonderfully entertaining combination of biting class satire, hilarious farce and pitch-black comedy, it’s the story of a suave and elegant serial murderer!
