Derry artist Barry Turton's new exhibition "Without Borders" is at Eden Place Arts Centre in the Bogside. Barry is a former teacher at St Peter's Secondary School and, during Lockdown, he painted doctors, nurses and NHS frontline heroes. He talks to Mark about why he paints for better mental health. "It gets rid of the clutter", he says.
Also Emma Robinson on the latest technology stories including the 10 year old who spent 拢2500 on Roblox (without her parents' permission!) and researchers from Queens University Belfast show that almost half of animal species are in decline due to human industrialisation. To cheer us up, we will have some music from Derry singer and former Celtic Woman Mairead Carlin.
