The Book of Clarence: we hear from Jeymes Samuel, the director of the new biblical comedy drama, the story of a down-on-his-luck man named Clarence living in Jerusalem in A.D. 33. He tries to cash in on the rise of Jesus Christ, by claiming to be another new Messiah sent by God, hoping to get out of debt and start a life of glory for himself.

Author Scarlett Thomas, whose work has been compared to Patricia Highsmith and Muriel Spark, discusses new thriller The Sleepwalkers.

And Michelle will unveil the artist behind our brand-new Single of the Week.
