Len meets the winner of BBC Radio Scotland’s Young Traditional Musician of the Year 2026, Rachel Groves, and hears about what drew her to the lever harp, why she left Aberdeenshire to move to Glasgow, and what winning the prize means to her. Niamh Hargan tells us about her new book Nothing Good Happens after 2am ahead of her event in Bearsden. The Olivier Award winning Australian playwright Suzie Miller tells us about her play Prima Facie, a one-woman production starring Jodie Comer and coming to Edinburgh's Lyceum Theatre. They speak about the real-world impact of the powerful themes of her play, and how it has developed, including Jodie's performance, in the years since she first took it to the stage.
