BBC Radio 4 - The Banksy Story, Bonus Episode: The Lost Banksy Interview

In this bonus episode, James Peak is on the trail of a lost Banksy interview.

In this bonus episode, James Peak tracks down an unheard Banksy interview from 2003, when the artist was starting to cut through.

James Peak isn't an art critic, or even a journalist. He's a Banksy super-fan, and in this series he, and his soundman Duncan, get closer than close to Banksy's secret world - telling the story of the graffiti kid who made spraying walls into high art, the household name who is completely anonymous, the cultural phenomenon who bites the hand that feeds him.

In this bonus episode, James is on the trail of a revealing early Banksy interview from 2003 when the artist was starting to cut through.
