Today we鈥檙e in the company of a billionaire, a hostage negotiator and the most sought after screenwriter in the business.

The screenwriter in question is Jack Thorne who鈥檚 now turned his considerable talent to a brilliant TV adaptation of Lord of the Flies.

Nicky Perfect says hostage negotiation is all about empathy, and less about talking than listening. And we鈥檒l be all ears as she tells us what we can all learn from the techniques police negotiators use.

And we鈥檒l certainly be paying close attention to what Welsh born billionaire Michael Moritz has to say to us, about his own story, and his telling of the story of his family which is fascinating, harrowing and inspiring in equal measure.

Also today the firefighter who spends his spare time being a Viking - and the Inheritance Tracks of Marian Keyes.
