You can hear Mr Lecky on PM tonight telling us why he deserves to win, but will he beat nominee number three? She's Goshka Macuga, whose work, the Tate tells us, consists of "carefully staged mixed-media installations"

Nigel's at Christie's, or should be in time for PM to ask about the financial value of a Turner nomination. What would you pay to have this art in your living room?
