Jason Donovan, Rufus Wainwright & Emerald Fennell.

Jason Donovan talks to Nicola Meighan about Dancing on Ice. And Nicola talks to singer-songwriter Rufus Wainwright about his intimate at-home gigs which are being streamed online.

Jason Donovan talks about competing in the current series of ITV’s Dancing on Ice.

Singer-songwriter Rufus Wainwright discusses his current series of intimate ‘at home’ gigs, streamed online, where he performs parts of his old albums, tongue-twistingly called the Rufus-Retro-Wainwright-Spective series.

David Greig, Artistic Director of the Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh and playwright Frances Poet tell Nicola all about new audio-digital theatre Sound Stage which will premiere eight new plays in its first season, one each month from March to October 2021 and is a joint venture from Pitlochry Festival Theatre and Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh, in collaboration with award winning audio production company Naked Productions. The first season’s plays include new works by Mark Ravenhill, Roy Williams, Timberlake Wertenbaker, and John Byrne.

The Golden Globe nominated director of forthcoming film Promising Young Woman, Emerald Fennell, talks about where her startling idea for the film came from and why actor Carey Mulligan was keen to play the title role.

Ross McFarlane, author and advocate, is in for an alternative Valentine’s Day chat about the Victorian version of ‘trolling’ that was popular for 100 years- anyone heard of Vinegar Valentines?
