Coming up on The Picture Show:
Mike Leigh's latest movie, 'Mr. Turner', depicts the last 25 years in the life of the great British painter JMW Turner. The eccentric, prolific and ground-breaking artist dominated the London art scene in the early 19th Century. During this period he had on-going relationships with two women, a devoted and neglected housemaid, called Hannah Danby and a widow and guesthouse landlady, Sophia Booth. Actors Dorothy Atkinson and Marion Bailey join Philip on The Picture Show tonight to discuss their roles in the movie.
