'If Pompeii was the Vegas of its time, I would be Mike Tyson' - Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje
British actor Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje explains how being black in Hollywood has landed him some very exciting roles. American best-selling writer David Baldacci tells us how his mother give him a blank journal and set him on his life's career.
Ghana's top acapella gospel singers, Alabaster Box, show us how they form their harmonies and perform for us in the studio. Savion Glover, hailed by many as the 'King' of tap dancing talks about how he choreographed the lead character Mumble in the 2006 animation film Happy Feet.
Kevin Spacey, the American film actor and artistic director of The Old Vic theatre in London, explains how the demands and rewards of a theatre stage are as alluring and fulfilling as any Hollywood role. And, director Joanna Hogg discusses her latest film - Exhibition - which is set entirely in a house about two artists who have to move out of their dream home.
