The New Radio 2 Arts Show with Claudia Winkleman - 11/09/2009

Barry Manilow is Claudia Winkleman's very special guest this week. The music legend chats exclusively to Claudia ahead of his performance at this year's Proms In The Park concert. English actor and singer Paul Nicholas also pops in, to talk about a successful career spanning 40 years. His debut performance was as Claude in the hugely successful love-rock musical Hair. His next role was even bigger - appearing as Jesus in the Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd-Webber spectacular Jesus Christ Superstar. For his next role, Paul dons a Tudor tunic to play Jack Point in Gilbert and Sullivan's Yeomen of the Guard. And Nick Cave drops in without his Bad seeds to talk about his new career as an author.
