Lulu, Palestinian Cooking, a Water Sommelier, and Mark Kermode's Inheritance Tracks

We all know Lulu for her breakout hit Shout, voicing the theme tune to James Bond's The Man With a Golden Gun, and winning Eurovision in an unprecedented 4-way tie. But, in her new memoir If You Only Knew, she reveals how her childhood in Glasgow was marked by trauma, her father was an alcoholic and mother never fully came to terms with being given away as a baby. Sami Tamimi first arrived in London from Palestine, in 1997, as a wide-eyed chef in his twenties looking to shake up the Arabic food scene in London. He soon met and befriended Israeli chef Yotam Ottolenghi and despite the obvious differences from their homelands they became the best of friends and together redefined middle-eastern cooking in the UK. But despite having co-written dozens of cookbooks - Boustany, is the first he has written solo.

After hitting rock bottom following his divorce, then fashion product developer Doran Binder, bought a struggling pub. Little did he know that underneath was exceptionally high quality water. He has not only bottled it, but has become the UK's first water sommelier.

All that, plus the woman soaring her way through grief in a hot air balloon, a thank you for a quite remarkable act of kindness, and the Inheritance Tracks of film critic, writer and broadcaster, Mark Kermode.

Presenter: Adrian Chiles Producer: Ben Mitchell
