A Cultural Review of 2009
Tom Sutcliffe and guests reflect on the cultural highs and lows of 2009.
2009 was the year that Slumdog Millionaire won the Oscar for best film, Hilary Mantel won the Booker Prize and Antony Gormley changed the face of Trafalgar Square. Tom Sutcliffe, along with guests Deborah Moggach, Matthew Sweet and Philip Hensher, selects his cultural highlights - and turkeys - from the year that brought us The White Ribbon, Enron, Anish Kapoor, Jedward and the end of Big Brother.
