Acclaimed film director Charlie Kaufman, new BBC One drama Mint and musician Broken Chanter

Afternoons

Available for 29 days

Critically acclaimed American writer and director Charlie Kaufman (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Being John Malkovich, Synecdoche, New York) chats ahead of his appearance at Sands, the International Film Festival of St Andrews, on Sunday. Writer and director Charlotte Regan talks about her brand new BBC One series coming to our screens next week. She describes Mint as a ‘gangster romance’ (with a heavy emphasis on the latter) set around a charismatic family played by a great cast, and it was shot entirely around Glasgow and Grangemouth. And Broken Chanter aka David MacGregor has just released a new album, This Could Be You, Us or Anybody Else. David joins Len to tell her all about it.
