Clive Anderson is with Robert Glenister, Charles Spencer, Olivia Williams, Nikki Bedi and Dave Gorman for an eclectic mix of conversation, music and comedy. Music from Jah Wobble.

Clive gets hacked off with actor Robert Glenister who is appearing as foul-mouthed newspaper editor Wilson Tickell in 'Great Britain', Richard Bean's satire about the press, police and political establishment, now transferring to the West End.

Nikki Bedi bravely wades into the media onslaught with comedian and writer Dave Gorman to talk about his latest book 'Too Much Information'.

Journalist, author and gin-lover Olivia Williams sits down for a tipple with Clive. Her debut book 'Gin Glorious Gin' is a social history of London seen from the bottom of a gin glass. It charts how 'mother's ruin' became the spirit of the capital city.

Clive talks to historian and best-selling author Charles Spencer. His new book 'Killers of the King: The Men Who Dared to Execute Charles I' is a bloody tale of royal revenge.

Jah Wobble's acclaimed group Invaders of the Heart have reformed for the first time in 20 years. They perform 'Visions of You' and 'Liquidator' ahead of a one off concert at Under the Bridge, London on 10th October 2014.
