Annie Lennox talks to Kirsty Lang about her new album Nostalgia, James Franco discusses his Fat Squirrel art venture, Philippe Sands on Nuremberg and Bach, and how to win an Oscar.

Annie Lennox talks to Kirsty Lang about her new album Nostalgia, on which she covers songs from The Great American Songbook. Hollywood actor and director James Franco shows Kirsty round his latest art venture Fat Squirrel. The international human rights lawyer Philippe Sands discusses A Song of Good and Evil, a show he developed when he realised that both a Nuremberg prosecutor and defendant shared a passion for Bach.
