Clive Anderson's guests include Shazad Latif, Laurie Anderson, Michael Cumming and Sooz Kempner. With music from Trust Fund and Ellen Beth Abdi.

Clive Anderson is joined by actor Shazad Latif, who stars as Nemo in 'Nautilus', a new ten part TV series based on Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea. Latif's TV credits include Spooks, The Pursuit of Love and Toast of London, where he played the fan favourite Clem Fandango.

And he's also joined by Michael Cumming, who directed Latif in three series of Toast of London. He is currently touring his documentary film 'Oxide Ghosts', a collection of outtakes and behind the scenes footage from the cult series 'Brass Eye' only ever shown at special live screenings.

Laurie Anderson is one of the world鈥檚 most pioneering creative artists. Her documentary film 'Heart of a Dog' was nominated for an Oscar, and she had a surprise hit in 1981 with her song 'O Superman', which reached number two in the UK singles chart. Her new Multimedia show ARK: United States V has just opened at Manchester's Factory International.

Comedian Sooz Kempner's most recent stand up show is 'Class of 2000'. It takes her back to sitting her GCSE's in a state school in the year 2000 while being preoccupied with horses, EastEnders and the millenium bug. It's also about the architectural wonder of the Viennetta. Sooz is also one of the hosts of The Queen Podcast.

Music is from Trust Fund, the musical project of Ellis Jones. After taking a break from music Jones is back with a new album 'Has it been a while?' And we also have a performance from Manchester based soul-pop artist Ellen Beth Abdi.
