American Singer Songwriter Loudon Wainwright III who has unveiled his new album, I’d Rather Lead A Band. Presented by Natasha Raskin Sharp.

Natasha Raskin-Sharp in conversation with legendary American Singer Songwriter Loudon Wainwright III who has unveiled his new album, I’d Rather Lead A Band -a collaboration with Vince Giordano and his band The Nighthawks, and producer and music supervisor Randall Poster, the 14-song collection is a loose, fresh, and “anti-nostalgic” take on classic songs from the 1920s and ‘30s featuring Wainwright as singer and band leader.    

We’ll also hear from Adrian Shergold, the director of CORDELIA – A British psychological thriller starring Antonia Campbell-Hughes and Johnny Flynn.

And  from Barnaby Thompson the director of PIXIE - an Irish crime caper with a screenplay by Preston Thompson and an incredible cast with Olivia Cooke, Ben Hardy, Dylan Moran, Chris Walley and Alec Baldwin!

In the film hour critics, Siobhan Synnot & Chris Fyvie  share their thoughts on Rebecca-  based on the 1938 novel of the same name by Daphne du Maurier it  stars Lily James, Armie Hammer, Kristin Scott Thomas,  in a haunting tale about a  young newlywed who  moves to her husband's imposing estate, where she must contend with his sinister housekeeper and the haunting shadow of his late wife.

They will also discuss, The Secret Garden , a Sky original, which tells the story of Mary Lennox a 10-year-old girl sent to live with her Uncle Archibald Craven (Colin Firth), under the watchful eye of Mrs Medlock with only the household maid, Martha  for company. The film is set in 1940s England at Misselthwaite Manor, a remote country estate deep in the Yorkshire Moors.

All that and a  classic Alfred Hitchcock thriller. North By NorthWest: when advertising executive Roger Thornhill (Cary Grant)is mistaken for the mysterious Mr Kaplan by a ruthless espionage ring, he soon faces deadly peril, framed for murder. On the run, Thornhill seeks Kaplan, the one person who can verify his story.
