Grant Stott will be talking to Eoin Colfer - one of the most successful children’s authors writing today; his first Artemis Fowl Book is being adapted by Disney into their next blockbuster for release next year. The Artemis Fowl books have sold in excess of 25 million copies since first publication nearly 20 years ago and he is returning with a new spin –off series, The Fowl Twins and Eoin will be doing big public book signings in Edinburgh and Glasgow!

All that and Gareth Maxwell Roberts - the director of Oil in the Blood' - a documentary feature film on the contemporary custom motorcycle culture; it's not a film about motorcycles, it's a film about motorcycle people!
