Michael Fassbender about his starring role in the film adaptation of
Jo Nesbø's novel The Snowman and his acting career from Band of Brothers to 12 Years A Slave.
Samira Ahmed then interviews
Kate Winslet about her role in another new film set in snowy climes, the romance-disaster film The Mountain Between Us. Back in the studio Giles, Rachel and John review Channel 4's Danish crime drama Norskov and ask if the British public have had their fill of the Scandi-Noir genre. Norwegian songstress
Susanne Sundfør performs live in the studio.
