About

Choose life. Choose love? Irvine Welsh joins us to discuss the sequel to his million-copy bestseller, Trainspotting. Men in Love picks up in a new era, as the Trainspotting crew fall for rave and romance in the late 1980s, the closing years of Thatcher’s Britain. But as the 1990s dawn, will finding love be the answer to the group’s dreams or just another doomed quest? Catch up with Renton, Spud, Sick Boy and Begbie and hear from the master storyteller himself.
