Janice Forsyth speaks to two-time, Booker Prize Winner, and Bestselling Author of True History of the Kelly Gang, Peter Carey, about his new book, A LONG WAY FROM HOME.

She will also have the first in a new series of occasional features exploring the history of Scotland's Great Theatres - this year the Citizens Theatre Company is celebrating 75 years since its founding by the Scottish playwright James Bridie - she'll hear all about it.

Ahead of a new UK tour of his latest one-man show, Madness frontman SUGGS discusses 'MY LIFE STORY' - a film musical drama based on his autobiography: interspersing stand-up performance and dramatised sequences.

Daniel Piper, the current National Slam Poetry Champion will be on hand to discuss handing over the baton to the 2018 Scottish Slam Champ - who will join him.

And in keeping with the Poetic tone, Stuart A. Paterson - Scottish poet and performer provides a special preview of a new exhibition at The Lillie Art Gallery - Poets, Portraits and Landscapes of Modern Scotland.
