Artist Carsten Holler's new exhibition, Decisions, plunges gallery visitors into situations where they are forced to make choices, from whether or not to eat a mysterious pill to whether to leave the exhibition through the door or down a giant slide. Rachel Cooke reviews.
John Wilson talks to playwright Patrick Marber about his latest play for the National Theatre, The Red Lion, which follows the fortunes of a minor league football club, a long way from the glitz and wealth of the premiership.
