Don't Look Up, Around the World in 80 Days, Cutting It Fine

Don't Look Up, starring Jennifer Lawrence and Leonardo DiCaprio, and Around the World in 80 Days, with David Tennant, are reviewed by our guests; the art of British wood engraving.

Jonathan Freedland, Sarah Churchwell and Leila Latif review Adam McKay's satire Don't Look Up, with a stellar cast including Jennifer Lawrence and Leonardo DiCaprio, and Around the World in 80 Days starring David Tennant, one of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Christmas TV offerings.

Cutting it Fine is a new exhibition in Salisbury, showcasing the art of British wood engraving - those small, black-and-white prints we see in books as well as in picture frames. Great artists including Eric Ravilious, Paul Nash and Gertrude Hermes have been attracted to the medium. Tom visits the exhibition as well as the studio of the wood engraver Howard Phipps, who shows him how the details and textures are achieved.
