Selina Scott presents a fast-moving magazine covering news and features from the world of showbusiness and the media. Aiming to be newsy and reactive rather than simply a guide to the arts, the programme embraces stories from Hollywood, television and pop, to video games, literary bestsellers and new home entertainment products.
Providing location reports from around Britain are Andi Peters and Triona Holden , and Joanna Kay has news from America. Selina Scott says of this new-style series: "It is good to be breaking new ground with the BBC again.'I did it first with Breakfast Time, then The Clothes Show, and now with another new venture."
