Tamara Drewe, Isle of Wight Cycling Festival and Tommy

Arts, culture and things to do (Paul Miller Soul Show on DAB only).

Neil's Sunday evening programme is a mix of reviews and previews from the world of arts and culture, mixed with a selection of music that will leave you wanting more.

The 5th Portsmouth Film Festival gets under way next week. Among the highlights, a screening of the rock opera Tommy at the Kings Theatre, Southsea - the very venue where the iconic pinball wizard scene was shot in Ken Russell’s 1975 extravaganza featuring Elton John and the Who. Tristan Pascoe was there for the launch of the festival.

Roger Allam, who stars alongside Gemma Arterton in the film Tamara Drewe, tells us about the film’s Dorset connections.

An exhibition of work by one of the UK's most influential contemporary artists is on display in Southampton, including eight large paintings by Bridget Riley - we have a sneak preview of the show.

And Neil meets some of those involved in the start of the annual Isle of Wight Cycling Festival which is now under way.

Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Solent’s Lena Samuels reviews the DVD Coco Before Chanel, and has some ideas to keep you occupied for the week ahead.

And you can help compile another A to Z playlist.

For those on the roads across the south of England, there is travel news as it happens. And a smile is promised as the weekend draws to a close.

Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Solent offers a choice of listening on a Sunday evening, with Neil on 96.1 and 103.8FM and on the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ iPlayer, and The Paul Miller Soul Show on digital radio and the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ iPlayer.
