Dexter Fletcher tells us how he came to make a film about Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards.
Victoria is a new thriller from German director Sebastian Schipper that was filmed in one continuous two-hour long take. It's a technical marvel but is it worth watching?
And Black Mountain Poets takes two con artist sisters to a poetry workshop in rural Wales. We hear from star, Alice Lowe.
As well as films there's music, theatre, and more music.
BB Diamond is a young singer making a name for herself with her great voice. She tells us about her new acid-jazz tinged single, Feeling.
