Felicity Jones on playing US Supreme Court judge Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Felicity Jones discusses her new film On the Basis of Sex, in which she plays Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the American Supreme Court Judge who rose to prominence as a lawyer in landmark cases against gender discrimination.

Vue, one of the UK鈥檚 biggest cinema chains, has threatened to boycott the Baftas after the film Roma, which they describe as a 鈥榤ade for TV鈥� film, won four awards including Best Film. John is joined by Vue鈥檚 chief executive Tim Richards, who has written an open letter to Bafta,.

As Steve Coogan鈥檚 awkwardly hilarious creation Alan Partridge returns for a new series called This Time With Alan Partridge, critic Julia Raeside delivers her verdict.

Performance artist Marina Abramovi膰 presents her new mixed reality artwork, a wearable augmented experience involving VR headsets which produce an image of Marina in the room. John talks to Marina and her collaborator Todd Eckert about the future artistic possibilities of the VR technology.
