Soaps and social issues, Jarvis Cocker and Chilly Gonzalez, Colin Dexter remembered
How soaps tackle social issues, Jarvis Cocker and Chilly Gonzalez on the ghosts of the Chateau Marmont Hotel.
As Coronation Street develops a controversial story-line about a 36 year old man grooming a teenager, we discuss soaps and their depiction of social issues with Coronation Street's Series Producer Kate Oates, Editor of The Archers Huw Kennair-Jones, and former Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Drama Controller John Yorke.
Ian Rankin and Lewis star Kevin Whately discuss the life and work of Inspector Morse creator Colin Dexter, whose death was announced today.
For Jarvis Cocker's first album in eight years he's teamed up with pianist Chilly Gonzalez to conjure up the ghosts of the legendary Chateau Marmont Hotel in Hollywood. At the piano they imagine what has gone on behind closed doors in Room 29.
