A live magazine programme on the worlds of arts, literature, film, media and music introduced by Mary Beard
As the V&A opens its first outpost outside London, in Dundee, Mary Beard and her panel of guests discuss iconic architecture and the role of cultural buildings in changing the fortunes of our towns and cities. Mary and her panel also debate whether Glasgow School of Art should be rebuilt, whatever the cost, and how Grenfell Tower should be memorialised. And Mary takes a day trip to Margate, to find out how hostile attitudes to Turner Contemporary have been reversed since it opened in 2011.
