Oppenheimer, A Most Violent Year, Fortitude, Rubens, Sandip Roy
Cultural highlights: RSC's Oppenheimer, A Most Violent Year, TV series Fortitude, Rubens and His Legacy exhibition at the Royal Academy, and Sandip Roy's novel Dont Let Him Know.
The RSC's latest production is Oppenheimer, a play about the man behind the invention of the nuclear bomb - a flawed hero, is it a flawless production?
A Most Violent Year is set in New York in 1981, a year when more than 1.2m crimes were committed. JC Chandor's film follows a man trying to build up a family business in the face of alarming violence and corruption.
Fortitude is Arctic noir TV. Set in an Icelandic Research Station where mysterious and untoward things start happening, the cast includes Sofie Grabol, Michael Gambon, Christopher Ecclestone and a host of other big names. Will it leave the reviewers cold?
Rubens And His Legacy at the Royal Academy attempts to explore the influence of the great Flemish master on artists over the last three and a half centuries.
Sandip Roy's first novel Dont Let Him Know tells the story of a young man in modern India exploring his sexual identity.
Tom Sutcliffe's guests are Lionel Shriver, Sophie Hannah and Francis Spufford. The producer is Oliver Jones.
