Phil Wang, who says he wouldn’t be a comedian if he wasn’t of mixed heritage, Malaysian and British, his latest Netflix special opens on the subject of reheating rice and how in the west we’re afraid to do that…so what does his dual heritage allow him to do

A question we could also put to Chitra Soundar, the award-winning children’s writer, who grew up in India, and whose books have inspired the new Â鶹ԼÅÄ animated sitcom Nikhil & Jay which is about two Indian/British dual heritage brothers.

Nigel McCrery, the man who created the hit TV series Silent Witness and who’s written over a dozen novels, reveals the details about his involvement in the DNA identification of the Russian Royal family.

All that, plus we have the Inheritance Tracks of the former Time Lord and master of spin Peter Capaldi.
