Episode notes

On Unscripted this week, Nina is joined by former guitarist for The Smiths, Johnny Marr.

Ahead of his upcoming solo record and album, Fever Dreams Pts 1-4, Marr reveals what is was like playing guitar for the new Bond soundtrack - and working with Billie Eilish.

The musician tells Nina why he thinks Brexit spells "disaster" for UK artists.

The pair chat all things Manchester, and why the city still keeps on producing some of the best of British music talent.

And, of course, we had to ask the question - will The Smiths ever reunite?
