Celebrated actress Juliet Cadzow, a round-up of the 2018 General Assembly of The Church of Scotland and the story of a concert performed by survivors of Dachau on this day in 1945.

Star of the Scottish screen and stage, Juliet Cadzow talks to Ricky about the art of acting, her recent health scare and the loss of her late husband, the ground-breaking theatre producer David MacLellan.

'The Breadwinner' tells the magical story of 11 year old Parvana who poses as a boy in order to help her family after her father is imprisoned by the Taliban. Film maker Roxana Vilk reviews the Oscar-nominated animation set in 2001 in Afghanistan's capital city Kabul.

Right Reverend Peter Gai Lual Marrow, from the Presbyterian Church of South Sudan and Sudan, is in Scotland visiting the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland. He updates Ricky on the latest news from the war torn country of South Sudan, and the work going on behind the scenes to bring opponents in this conflict to the negotiating table.

A roundup of events from the Kirk's General Assembly continues with an international flavour, with Reverend Dr Janet Foggie, a Pioneer Minister with the Presbytery of Stirling, and Simon Barrow from the beliefs and ethics think-tank Ekklesia.

And remembering the story of an extraordinary Jewish renaissance that followed the liberation of Dachau in 1945; a concert performed in the monastery of St Ottilien by a group of musicians who had been prisoners at the camp. Simon Barrow and journalist Rosie Whitehouse discuss the significance of the concert and the world the survivors faced after internment.
