Today we鈥檒l be discussing Keanu Reeves and Winona Rider in Destination Wedding, animated adventure Pokemon Detective Pikachu- and Amazing Grace, the footage of a remarkable concert given in an LA church by Aretha Franklin in 1971, shot by Oscar Winning filmmaker Sydney Pollack, and never before seen- until now.

Grammy Award-winning singer- songwriter, Patty Griffin, whose songs have been covered by the Dixie Chicks, Emmylou Harris and many more, talks about her new album before heading to her gig in Edinburgh tonight.

Children鈥檚 author Theresa Breslin chats with Grant about a topic close to her heart: libraries. They鈥檙e joined by Peggy Hughes, Chair of Literature Alliance Scotland, to give us an overview of the health of Scotland鈥檚 literary scene.
