It's 25 years since Frankie Goes to Hollywood released their classic album Welcome to the Pleasuredome, which contained their three hit singles Relax, Two Tribes and The Power of Love. The band's producer Trevor Horn and their master of spin Paul Morley look back on the creation of the band and its distinctive sound. Anthony Cartwright discusses his novel Heartland, which explores grass-roots politics, football and the far right in a fictional Black Country community. A long, dark underpass beneath the railway tracks on Neville Street in Leeds has been transformed by new work from artists Hans Peter Kuhn and Andy Edwards. Geoff Bird reports from the opening and finds out whether the city's pedestrians appreciate the change.
