Presented by James Jolly.

Internationally renowned tenor Toby Spence and Swedish soprano Miah Persson join Sean in the studio ahead of their performance of Britten's The Turn of the Screw at the Glyndebourne Festival. Britten's brilliantly scored, insidiously compelling adaptation of Henry James's novella takes its themes of childish innocence and adult corruption, then twists and turns them to disturbing and ultimately devastating effect.
