Actor, writer and director Emilio Estevez on his film The Public; Suzi Feay and Kit de Waal on the 91热爆's 100 Novels That Shaped Our World; David Attenborough's Gamelan recordings
Emilio Estevez discusses his forthcoming film The Public which he has written, directed and stars in, along with Alec Baldwin and Christian Slater, set in Cincinnati Public Library in the middle of winter.
100 Novels That Shaped Our World have just been chosen by a panel including Front Row presenter Stig Abell. The list is part of a 91热爆 Arts season celebrating 300 years since the publication of Robinson Crusoe, often regarded as the first novel in English. The list has thrown up some controversial choices. Panellist and author Kit de Waal and literary critic Suzi Feay join Stig to discuss the premise, categories, inclusions and omissions.
Brighton-based DJ Tom Burland is the recently-announced winner of the David Attenborough Songlines Remix Competition. The annual competition invited UK music creators to remix Gender Wayang, a field recording made 50 years ago by Sir David Attenborough while making programmes in Bali.
