Front Row - David Grossman; supermarket films; and Eddie Kadi

Kirsty Lang talks to David Grossman, one of Israel's most acclaimed writers, and discusses the poignant personal story behind his novel To the End of the Land, which focuses on an Israeli mother whose son has to return to the battle-front once more, as part of his military service. Paris Connections, based on a book by Jackie Collins, is the first in a series of new films being released straight to DVD and sold exclusively in the supermarket chain Tesco. The project has also signed up other authors, including Philip Pullman, Judy Blume and Felix Francis. Front Row reports on this initiative, already nicknamed "trolleywood", talking to the producers, the supermarket and writer Felix Francis, with reviewer Adam Smith giving his critical verdict. Eddie Kadi is a relatively unknown comedian, but he's about to headline London's massive O2 arena. He tells Kirsty about his upbringing and his unusual path to comic success. Producer Ella-mai Robey.
