New BBC Scotland show, The Entertainment Mix, to serve up big name interviews, features and the latest arts and culture news

Michelle McManus has all the right ingredients for a new show that will bring audiences the best of what’s happening in entertainment and culture from around Scotland.

The Entertainment Mix which launches on the BBC Scotland channel on Thursday 24 October will include celebrity interviews from the world of events, film, music, and entertainment, in addition to features and the latest news from the culture and arts scene.

Michelle will present the weekly half-hour show which will air at 8.00 pm and feature big name interviews and grant audiences behind-the-scenes access to artists, shows and festivals.

The Entertainment Mix will also round up must-see gigs, performances, and live events in a regular ‘what’s on’ segment. The show will include highlights of interviews from BBC Radio Scotland’s music and culture output.

Michelle will also be on BBC Radio Scotland four days a week as part of a change to the afternoon schedule.

From Monday 21 October, Afternoons with Michelle McManus will air from 1.30pm – 4 pm Monday to Thursday, when she’ll continue to treat audiences to a combination of feel-good music and celebrity interviews as well as bringing them all the best cultural events from right across the country.

Heather Kane-Darling, Commissioning Editor at BBC Scotland says: “We’re thrilled to have Michelle present our weekly offering of The Entertainment Mix which will celebrate Scotland’s talented performers and creators and provide audiences with everything they need to know about the big cultural moments across Scotland.

And on air across the week on BBC Radio Scotland, expect Michelle’s warm, down-to-earth style to keep the audience company in the afternoon along with great music choices which will brighten their day.”
