Presented by Mark Lawson.

With 41 novels under his belt, the thriller writer and former champion jockey Dick Francis has just published his latest, Silks. In a rare interview, the 88 year old writer and his son Felix, a long-time collaborator in the writing process, reflect on a cruel twist of fate in the 1956 Grand National and a subsequent writing success story which has gone rather a long way to compensating for that bitter blow.

Chart-topping rapper Mike Skinner, better known as The Streets, discusses his new album. Skinner acknowledges some unexpected influences found in poetry and psychology and explains why his next album will be his last under the name of The Streets.

Television executive and former Controller of 成人快手 Three Stuart Murphy reviews the film Live!, a mockumentary about a reality show where the contestants risk their lives for five million dollars in a primetime game of Russian roulette.
