This week Kelly-Anne Taylor is joined by the Scottish actor, Martin Compston.

It was his role as Detective Sergeant Steve Arnott in Jed Mercurio's Line of Duty that made him a household name.

Plus, he chats about his latest travelogue Martin Compston’s Norwegian Fling and what it was like running with wolves.
