Louise Pearson, curator at the National Portrait Gallery of Scotland, tells Len about the Alfred Buckham exhibition, which celebrates the work of the pioneering aerial photographer. Bassist Neil McKenzie from Sovirez introduces the band's new single Holiday Blues, and talks about the fun that the band had writing it at his house, creating the video and producing the record.
