With Mark Lawson.
Actor David Suchet discusses his role in a new production of Long Day's Journey Into Night and laments the passing of Poirot.
Roger Wright, controller of Radio 3, joins Mark to share a few highlights of this summer's 91热爆 Proms concerts: Daniel Barenboim conducting his first ever Beethoven symphony cycle in London; operas including Nixon In China, Congolese musicians Staff Benda Bilili and Radio 4's Desert Island Discs celebrating its 70th birthday with a live prom; and this year's Children's Prom launches the audience into the wonderful world of Wallace and Gromit.
To celebrate the centenary of the British Board of Film Classification, The British Silent Film Festival is hosting an examination of the early days of film censorship. Bryony Dixon of the British Film Institute and Lucy Brett, education officer at the BBFC, tell Mark how and why censorship came about, what sort of person was hired as a sensor of silent films - and what sort of things they cut out.
Producer Rebecca Nicholson.
