Wossy's production team have really come up with the goods tonight, netting five sparkling guests who, between them, should please almost every part of the audience. Top of the bill is Danny Boyle, whose direction of the Olympics opening ceremony last summer propelled him from well-regarded filmmaker to cut-and-dried national treasure overnight. He'll be talking about that experience, as well as his latest movie, Trance, and his recently revealed plans to make a sequel to Trainspotting within the next few years. Fans of the director should savour the moment, as Boyle hardly ever gives TV interviews.
Following him, Deadwood star Ian McShane and Skins alumnus Nicholas Hoult drop in to discuss their new film, Jack the Giant Slayer (not a remake of the 1962 film, but basically Jack and the Beanstalk reworked with Hollywood levels of blood, guts and brouhaha).
Last but not least, Blur frontman Damon Albarn and 69-year-old soul hero Bobby Womack are on hand with live music from The Bravest Man in the Universe - the wonderful, strikingly poignant album they made together last year.
