Loose Ends - 01/05/2010

Peter Curran and guests with an eclectic mix of conversation, music and comedy. Peter is joined by Australian comedy actress Jane Turner, one half of the cult hit sitcom Kath and Kim, as she makes her London stage debut in 'Holding the Man'. Michael Mosley talks about the wonder of science and how it shaped the world in his latest landmark series, The Story of Science: Power, Proof and Passion. Choirmaster Gareth Malone moves from singing in schools and housing estates to exploring the history of Sea Shanties for BBC Four. Emma Freud looks at Picasso, Dali, Matisse and Warhol with art critic Alastair Sooke and presenter of Modern Masters on BBC One. There's comedy from the delightful Hal Cruttenden. Plus music from dub-reggae legends Dreadzone. And pop perfection from Marina and the Diamonds.
