Summary

Viv Groskop and Amanda Vickery join Tom Sutcliffe to review: The Bayeux Tapestry as it goes on display to the public in Britain for the first time since its creation almost a millennium ago. Taipei Story, the new novel from bestselling literary phenomenon Rebecca F Kuang, author of Babel and Yellowface, about a young Chinese-American woman studying in Taiwan and grappling with ideas of disapora and identity. Everybody Digs Bill Evans, the debut narrative feature from filmmaker Grant Gee which looks at the life of the legendary jazz musician Bill Evans. And as the BBC National Short Story Award returns, Tom announces the shortlist live - and talks to one of the shortlisted authors. Presenter: Tom Sutcliffe Producer: Tim Bano
