Join the UK’s favourite film critic, Mark Kermode, alongside very special guests – including Golden Globe-winning Succession patriarch Brian Cox – for a unique and energy-filled celebration of the silver screen. They’ll explore and dissect current and upcoming releases, revel in the vintage age of cinema, and maybe admit to a few guilty pleasures…

The Front List: Ally McCoist
Known to many simply as ‘Super Ally’, Ally McCoist is one of Scotland's best-known sportspeople – but aside from being a former star of our national football team, he’s also one of its biggest fans. In his new autobiography, Dear Scotland: On the Road with the Tartan Army, and in today’s special event, he’ll take audiences on an unforgettable journey through his sporting career, reflect on the highs (and lows) of following Scotland, and share some of his most side-splitting stories.
The Front List: Anne Applebaum & Edward Wong
It’s hard to overstate the extent to which the Trump administration has disrupted the past 70 years’ world order. Journalists Anne Applebaum (The Atlantic columnist and author of the award-winning Twilight of Democracy, and Autocracy Inc) and Edward Wong (Diplomatic Correspondent for the New York Times and author of At the Edge of Empire) are here to report on the seismic shifts in the rules of engagement, and whether democracy can ever truly be safeguarded.
The Front List: Asako Yuzuki
Since Butter appeared in print, bookshops have been scrambling to keep Asako Suzuki’s word-of-mouth sensation in stock. About a serial killer chef who poisons her lovers deliciously, this strange, thrilling, incisive novel won Waterstones Book of the Year 2024. Author of over 20 novels (though Butter is her first English translation), Yuzuki talks today about consumption, sexism, skewed beauty standards, and her mission to elevate the status of Japan’s women through powerful storytelling.
The Front List: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (Half of a Yellow Sun, Americanah)’s feverishly anticipated new novel, Dream Count, has been a decade in the making, and follows the interconnected lives of four immigrant women between Nigeria and the US wrangling with the direction their lives have, and haven’t, taken. A powerful exploration of sisterhood, solidarity, and fulfilment, Adichie offers an insight into her transcendent, powerful work, and how the choices we make – or which are made for us – can cast a longer shadow than we might ever expect.
