Led Zeppelin, Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ National Short Story Award, Martin Roth
Jimmy Page and the long-lost Led Zeppelin tracks, Jenni Murray unveils the shortlist of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ National Short Story Award, and why Martin Roth is quitting the V&A post-Brexit.
Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin talks about the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ sessions the band recorded from 1969-71, and reveals how tracks presumed lost have been recovered, remastered and released.
The annual Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ National Short Story Award is back and this year the chair of judges is Jenni Murray. She reveals who's on the shortlist and in the first of five interviews with the shortlisted authors, Hilary Mantel discusses her story, In A Right State, which is told in the first person, from the perspective of a homeless woman, who spends the night in A&E for want of something better to do. She also reveals when she's hoping to finish The Mirror And The Light, the third in the Wolf Hall trilogy, and gives a hint of what to expect from it.
In his first broadcast interview since announcing his departure from the V&A in London, the outgoing Director Martin Roth explains why he's swapping museums for European politics.
