Janice hears about the Barbara Hepworth : Art and Life exhibition

Curator Eleanor Clayton on the Barbara Hepworth retrospective exhibition and comedian and environmental economist Dr Matt Winning

Janice will be chatting to Dr Matt Winning, award winning comedian and climate change researcher  ahead of his gigs in Glasgow and Edinburgh.

There’s a wealth of television offerings on our screen leading up to Easter and beyond. TV critic and broadcaster Scott Bryan gives us his picks and guides us through the many streaming services that are on offer.

Curator Eleanor Clayton tells Janice about the new Barbara Hepworth: Art and Life exhibition which has opened in Edinburgh and is the largest display of the artist and sculptor’s work to be shown in Scotland.  We’ll also hear from Anna Welander who walked round the exhibition with National Galleries of Scotland assistant Curator Leila Riszko

Novelist Catherine Simpson has written her frank and sometimes funny memoir, One Body, A Retrospective which describes how one life-changing crisis showed Catherine how to appreciate the skin she’s in.  

Janice will also announce our new Single of the Week and chat to the artist before giving the track its first spin of the week
