Mariella Frostrup is still doing The Book Show on Sky Arts (channel 267). I just wish my Sky Planner wouldn't keep forgetting it's on.
I have no idea why this isn't on BBC2, it's excellent. I suppose it would clash with their Culture Show which I guess is their idea of 'cool', it is just so not.

Next show is this Sunday:

Mariella is joined in the studio by playwright, screenwriter and Buddha of Suburbia author Hanif Kureishi; journalist and author Justine Picardie, and blockbusting author duo Nicci French. We'll also hear from Mark Mills on what books are currently cluttering up his bedroom floor; Tracy Chevalier will be taking us on a tour of her study, and bookshop The Lion and the Unicorn will be recommending their top read for book clubs.

Wow! So well-organised - winking smileys and Sky planners. In theory I could have a planner, so I'll have a look, or ask my husband when he wakes up.

Thanks for the tip-off about the arts channel, Naomi, I think I can scroll through and see what time it's on.

I'm an admirer of of Hanif Kureishi and 'duo Nicci French'.
