´óÏó´«Ã½

Grant Stott in conversation with legendary Salford poet, Dr. John Cooper Clarke: Poet Laureate of Punk, rock star, fashion icon, TV and radio presenter, social and cultural commentator. As a writer his voice is equally unmistakable and his own brand of slightly sick humour is never far from the surface. He’ll discuss I Wanna Be Yours - a memoir as funny, wry, vivid and moving as only 'The Bard of Salford' could deliver.

The Afternoon Show’s Anna Welander will be introducing some creative work submitted by our listeners via ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Scotland’s new Upload site, and we’ll hear about Body of Water - a moving British drama exploring the impact of an eating disorder on a family; the film's Scottish director, Lucy Brydon will discuss it all

We’ll also hear from the director of Carmilla - a British romantic horror film written and directed by Emily Harris.

In the film hour critics, Wendy Lloyd & Graeme Virtue share their thoughts on I Am Greta – a new documentary following eco-warrior Greta Thunberg as she turns a single protest into a global movement.

They will also discuss the remarkable, Dick Johnson Is Dead’ - Kirsten Johnson’s documentary about her elderly dad — (in which she mock-kills him over and over!!) It celebrates a life with bittersweet humour and grace; offering a deeply resonant perspective on mortality in the bargain.

All that and a contemporary classic: Jerry Maguire – starring Tom Cruise and Renee Zellweger.
