BBC Radio Scotland - The Afternoon Show, Nick Broomfield, The Big Book Weekend and Film Review Hour

Val McDermid, crime writer, looks ahead to participating in The Big Book Weekend.

Val McDermid, crime writer, looks ahead to participating in online festival The Big Book Weekend, and director Nick Broomfield talks about his latest film, My Father and Me.

Val McDermid, crime writer, and author and organiser of The Big Book Weekend Molly Flatt join Grant to look ahead to this weekend's online virtual book festival, hosted by BBC Arts Online.

Director Nick Broomfield is known for a style in which he and the filmmaking process become part of the subject of the film. However he’s never made a film more personal than his latest, My Father And Me, about his relationship with his father, factory worker turned accomplished photographer, Maurice Broomfield. Nick will be speaking to Grant from his home in LA.

Grant is joined for our Film Review Hour by Wendy Lloyd and Paul Gallagher to talk about three new films – Documentary Amber and Me, which follows twin sisters, one of whom has Down's Syndrome, as they navigate through their first 4 years of primary school; Hungarian psychological drama Preparations to be Together for an Unknown Period of Time, directed by Lili Horvát, and the anticipated release of Zack Snyder's director's cut of Justice League.
