Edi Stark sits in

Edi Stark sits in for Janice Forsyth and discusses Scotland's favourite books, plus she has music from The Bathers and the Tuesday Review.

Yesterday, the top 10 from 91热爆 Scotland's search for Scotland's Favourite Book was unveiled - Edi is joined by Jenny Niven from Creative Scotland; Philippa Cochrane from the Scottish Book Trust, and Professor Willy Maley from the University of Glasgow, who created the longlist for the public vote. They explain how they made their choices and discuss the value of being asked to consider favourites.

Edi talks to Jeanne Willis, who is one of the authors of four new Winnie the Pooh stories (featuring new character Penguin), created to mark 90 years since the first publication of AA Milne's classic children's books.

The Bathers play an exclusive session for the show.

Jo Clifford and Annabel Cooper talk about an upcoming LGBT intergenerational Cabaret show in Edinburgh, and workshops in Glasgow - open to all over 50s who might be interested in stepping on stage.

Photographer Larry Herman talks about his exhibition Clydeside 1974-1976, on display again for the first time in 40 years at Streel Level Photoworks in Glasgow.

Plus the Tuesday Review: Hannah McGill, James Crawford and Graeme Virtue review the new series of Black Mirror (Charlie Brooker's creepy dramas poached from Channel 4 by Netflix); Mark Cousins' collaboration with Mogwai - Atomic, which is touring Scottish cinemas; and Ali Smith's new book, Autumn, written this summer and described as the UK's first post-Brexit novel.
