THE BIG READS
Sophie Okonedo read Edward Albee's play - The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia? - twice, and found herself transfixed by the study of love without boundaries.
The show - which is a solid-gold hit in New York - uses music from the late 20th-century (hip-hop) to tell the story of 18th-century U.S. founding father Alexander Hamilton.
Naomie Harris was scared. She had accepted the role of Paula, a crack addict, in a film called Moonlight. But reading the script, the teetotaller began to worry about her suitability for the part.
Prince Philip is depicted as a roisterer who stays out all night after his wife, Princess Elizabeth, becomes Queen, in television drama of the year The Crown. He is played by Matt Smith.
Four decades on, the BBC is revamping its classic sitcom Porridge, which starred Ronnie Barker, with Kevin Bishop as Fletch, original Fletcher's grandson, in the nick.
REVIEWS
FILM
I couldn't help thinking that the judges had done what they so often do at the Oscars: honoured the right director for the wrong movie, BRIAN VINER writes.
Anna Kendrick, Justin Timberlake, James Corden, John Cleese and Gwen Stefani among the stellar voice cast in Trolls, writes BRIAN VINER.
Who'd have thought that the familiar narrative of sport-propelled upwards mobility could be applied to an African shanty town, and to a girl's mastery of the chess board, writes BRIAN VINER.
With half-term just around the corner, here's an animated film that might fill a rainy afternoon, although its rather complex story seem to be aimed more at adults than kids.
Kate Lyn Sheil plays Christine Chubbuck, presenter of a local TV show in Sarasota, Florida, who announced live on air that she would kill herself, drawing a gun to her head and pulling the trigger.
The Da Vinci Code and Angels And Demons 'were just the beginning', according to adverts for Inferno, the latest film in the Dan Brown series, with Tom Hanks and Felicity Jones.
MUSIC REVIEWS AND FEATURES
Meet Gaga minus the gimmicks: The world's most eccentric female pop star lets her natural talent shine
Gaga's latest image is less abrasive, while her music reinforces a decisive move away from the machine-tooled, soulless dance music of 2013's disappointing Artpop, writes ADRIAN THRILLS.
- Why Tom's Keane on going solo: Singer's debut The Leave ebbs, flows and examines his demons
- Still a Funny Girl, with a little help from her friends: Barbra Streisand's Encore is a theatrical tour de force, writes ADRIAN THRILLS

WHITE LIES
Friends (BMG)
White Lies have been too bombastic in the past but this fourth album, made in Bryan Ferry's studio, finds the West London trio adding an appealing lightness of touch to their Killers-like blend of surging guitar-rock and Eighties electronic pop. Hold Back Your Love is driven by buoyant disco rhythms and Summer Didn't Change A Thing is streamlined arena fare. Harry McVeigh's vocals are bracing while the trio's lyrics are increasingly mature.

SUZANNE VEGA
Lover, Beloved (Cooking Vinyl)
The companion piece to a musical about American novelist Carson McCullers, this playful record finds Vega inhabiting the character of McCullers, the woman who wrote The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter. Backed by a loose, bar-room band, her vocals are warm and engaging. Stand-out song Harper Lee is a pithy dig at Carsons peers: Virginia Woolf, she leaves me cold / I recognise the genius, but Im twice as bold. Smart stuff.

OASIS
Be Here Now (Big Brother)
High on their own undoubted importance, Oasis delivered a bloated parting shot to Britpop with 1997s Be Here Now. Its songs were too long, with too many uninspired guitar solos, and this deluxe re-issue reiterates its position as the bands first misstep. Despite that, the bonus material has its appeal: forgotten B-side Stay Young is one of Liam Gallaghers finest moments; DYou Know What I Mean? is cleverly remixed by Noel.

ONEREPUBLIC
Oh My My (Interscope)
Having made his name as the go-to-guy for female singers aiming to conquer the charts, from Adele to Taylor Swift, OneRepublics Ryan Tedder keeps his best songs to himself here. His Denver quintet can veer too close to skilful pastiche (Ed Sheeran on Lets Hurt Tonight; Coldplay on Future Looks Good), but there are glimmers of real inspiration on the Peter Gabriel collaboration A.I. and power ballad Choke.

PIXIES
Head Carrier (Play It Again Sam)
The key US rock band of the late Eighties, Boston quintet Pixies unwittingly set the template for the subsequent grunge movement with their second album Surfer Rosa. Head Carrier sticks to a tried and trusted approach and, on All I Think About Now, even recycles a Surfer Rosa riff. The sparkle of original bassist Kim Deal is missed, although her replacement Paz Lenchantin does add dreamy, soprano harmonies. They can do better.

BON IVER
22, A Million (Jagjaguwar)
Justin Vernon (aka Bon Iver) dispenses with any conventional song titles or structures on an album that reverses his recent move towards the mainstream. The Wisconsin singer is a friend of Kanye West they played together at Glastonbury and the rappers influence is evident in his electronically enhanced falsetto vocals. Adele hailed Vernons last album as the soundtrack to my heart. She may not feel the same about this one, but it is still beguiling.

KATIE MELUA
In Winter (BMG)
Katie Melua spent her early years in Georgia before moving to the UK and she returns to the former Soviet republic for inspiration. The singer-songwriter, backed by a stirring female choir, lends her maturing voice to a batch of Eastern European carols and folk songs as well as a pointless cover of Joni Mitchells River. The wintry themes might be two months too early, but this is a refined, romantic album Katies best yet.
