TV's I Claudius; Jules Buckley's Stevie Wonder Prom; the difficulty buying concert tickets
I Claudius - the 1976 Roman Empire drama's return to TV; conductor and composer Jules Buckley on his Stevie Wonder Prom; and the difficulty buying tickets for major music concerts
As the acclaimed 1976 Roman Empire drama series I Claudius returns to television screens, classicist Natalie Haynes and cultural critic Charlotte Higgins discuss the reasons for its success, whether its historical inaccuracies are any bar to its enjoyment, and if it stands the test of time.
Plus conductor, curator, and composer Jules Buckley discusses his Stevie Wonder Prom celebrating 50 years of the ground-breaking album Innervisions.
And why is it often so hard to buy tickets for big gigs, like Taylor Swift鈥檚 Eras tour? We talk to ticketing security expert Reg Walker, and to Martin Haigh of ticketing system provider Total Ticketing and a previous head of Ticketmaster Asia.
