Fashion and couture historian William Banks-Blaney tells Janice about his new 4 part series for iPlayer called "Lights, Camera, Fashion! - exploring the biggest fashion moments in cinema history from 60s to 90s.

There's music from The Korvids, a duo formed by Love and Money front man James Grant and top muso and Simple Minds producer Gordy Goudie.
