He’s joined by musicologist Flora Willson, who explains why this 19th century work is the most-performed opera in the world.
Dark Heart is the new ITV police procedural by Unforgotten writer Chris Lang, in which troubled detective DI Wagstaff takes on a case involving a series of gruesome vigilante murders. TV critic David Butcher considers if the series brings anything fresh to the genre.
