Patricia Cornwell, Lottie Dolls & The Movie Review

Patricia Cornwell launches her 24th Kay Scarpetta novel, Lottie Doll maker Arklu have signed a worldwide publishing deal & movie reviews on Dr Strange, Jack Reacher 2 & Trolls.

An auction of David Bowie's private art collection has caught the headlines, as it includes work by the Banbridge sculptor FE McWIlliam – and Marie-Louise finds out more from Dr Riann Coulter.

Patricia Cornwell is on fire as she launches her twenty fourth Kay Scarpetta novel – based on the celebrated medical examiner. And while Cornwell inhabits a world of 21st century forensic science, it's actually a 19th century serial killer, Jack the Ripper, that fascinates her.

Lottie Dolls, designed to look like children for children are squaring up to the outdated view of what a plastic perfected doll is. And since Lottie was launched 4 years ago, she has become a cultural phenomenon. So much so that the Letterkenny company that makes her - Arklu have signed a worldwide publishing contract with Penguin for a series of books - taking Lottie on a series of adventures off the Dorset Coast. Marie-Louise talks to co-founder Ian Harkin.

And in the Movie Review Mike Catto reveals all on the films: Dr Strange, Jack Reacher 2 and Trolls
