Director Robert Eggers discusses his new film The Northman, set in Iceland at the turn of the 10th century. A Nordic prince sets out on a mission of revenge after his father is murdered. The plot, which is an old Nordic story, is allegedly the basis for the plot of Hamlet. The film stars Alexander Skarsgård, Anya Taylor-Joy, Björk, Willem Dafoe and Ethan Hawke. The Olivier Awards recently returned to The Royal Albert Hall for a glittering ceremony, following a pandemic hiatus. They're widely regarded as honouring a who's who of great British theatre but critic David Benedict believes they aren't truly representative. He joins Samira to make the case for shaking up the Oliviers. Artist and writer Oliver Jeffers discusses Our Place in Space, a 10km sculpture trail representing the solar system which is part of Unboxed, a celebration of creativity, taking place across England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales and online from March to October. We remember Sir Harrison Birtwistle, one of the most significant British composers of the last century, whose death at the age of 87 was announced yesterday.

After college sports made a sudden shift into off-season mode, the UConn athletic department has shifted its focus to the Big East and making football independence work. Even during this global health crisis, David Benedict and his team are making progress. Sports may have stopped but there's plenty going on in the world of Husky athletics, including a new TV deal, basketball recruiting wins, and a lot to look forward to with the move to the Big East. Also, Geno's doing live shows on Instagram, what a time to be alive! To help catch us up on what the Big East has been up to over the past seven years, we spoke with Robert O'Neill, manager of Big East Coast Bias, SB Nation's Big East site. He was kind enough to share his insight on men's and women's hoops as well the Big East-Fox television experience, overall league moods and more. Learn more about your ad choices.

We've been learning a little bit more with each passing week following last month's announcement that UConn would be joining the Big East. The Huskies are taking 20 of their 24 varsity sports to the Big East Conference, leaving football without a home after the move takes place, because this newfangled Big East doesn't sponsor football. There's a strong possibility Husky football hangs out as an FBS independent for a few years, maybe more. Now that David Benedict and university leadership made the decision to pursue Big East membership, and sealed the deal, they'll have to carefully navigate the exit from the American. There is also the matter of negotiations with Fox, SNY, and other potential broadcast partners on how to create a better football and basketball experience for UConn fans. In this podcast, the crew discusses how UConn can approach these conversations, the future of the football program, early feels for men's basketball, and then very deep into hockey recruiting.

Maggi Hambling discusses her new exhibition The Quick and the Dead at Jerwood Gallery in Hastings, which centres on paintings and drawings made over the past decade, in which she has portrayed four fellow artists - Sebastian Horsley, Sarah Lucas, Julian Simmons and Juergen Teller - whose lives have intersected at various points, and who have created their own reciprocal artistic interpretations.Nearly 40 years ago, three white Jewish teenagers called Adam Horovitz, Adam Yauch and Michael Diamond became Ad-Rock, MCA and Mike D when they stopped playing hardcore punk and took up rap. The hip hop group Beastie Boys went on to gain 3 Grammy awards and sell 50 million records worldwide. Stig talks to Mike D and Ad Rock about their new book - which is as much dedicated to MCA, who died in 2012, as it is to documenting the band's history.With actor Ellie Kendrick making her professional debut as a playwright with Hole at the Royal Court in London this week, she and theatre critic David Benedict consider the long tradition of the actor-turned-playwright, from Shakespeare and Garrick to Pinter and Rory Kinnear.Presenter Stig Abell Producer Jerome Weatherald
