BBC Radio Scotland - The Afternoon Show, Paul Black, Jono McLeod and the Tuesday Review

Janice Forsyth talks to comedian Paul Black about his latest TV show.

Comedian Paul Black on his new TV show, and director Jono McLeod on his documentary My Old School.

Glasgow comedian Paul Black tells Janice about his new TV show, Paul Black's First Footing, on screen on Hogmanay.

Director Jono McLeod talks about his documentary My Old School, ahead of it being screened on BBC Scotland. It reflects on Jono's fellow pupil at Bearsden Academy, imposter schoolboy Brandon Lee. 

Writer Freya Slipper discusses her new musical podcast Crush Hour, a musical telling the stories of unknowingly connected strangers, who all have chance encounters on tubes, taxis, trains and bikes as they travel across London on Christmas Eve. 

And in this week's Tuesday Review, writers Jenny Colgan and Andrew Meehan share their thoughts on Riches, a new ITV drama billed as the UK’s answer to Succession, as the family of a hugely successful black British businessman vie for control after he has a heart attack.  Plus Vardy v Rooney: Channel 4’s dramatisation of the Wagatha Christie trial; and Mayflies, a new BBC drama adaptation of Andrew O’Hagan’s novel, starring Martin Compston, Ashley Jensen and Tony Curran.
