Critics William Lee Adams and Laura Barton join Samira to review the new album from Irish popstar CMAT which reflects on her home country, the sexist comments she has received, as well as Jamie Oliver and Teslas. More than a decade after the US version of sitcom The Office ended, it gets a spin-off called The Paper, set in a local newspaper office in Ohio. And Jacob Elordi and Daisy Edgar-Jones lead the cast of a new gay romance film called On Swift Horses, set in fifties California.
London's Southbank Centre will be covered in dance for 3 nights, when "We Should Have Never Walked On The Moon" takes over The Royal Festival Hall and The Queen Elizabeth Hall. Visitors will witness dance in new spaces, by Ballet Rambert and (LA)HORDE. Samira speaks with dancers, choreographers, organisers and directors about what will happen and what it all means.
