This week's guests are Director of Amnesty International Ireland Colm O'Gorman, arts journalist Nadine O'Regan and art critic Cristín Leach.

The Runaways is a new movie based on Cherie Currie's book 'Neon Angel'. Cherie Currie was once lead singer with mid-seventies all girl rockband The Runaways and thanks to dubious marketing and songs like Cherrybomb became the first all-girl band to break into the very male world of hard rock. The movie stars Dakota Fanning, Kristen Stewart and Michael Shannon.

Room is the latest novel from Irish writer Emma Donoghue. In a tale which echoes some real-life horror stories, a five year old boy called Jack and his mother live their lives locked up in a tiny room, occasionally visited at night by a man known as Old Nick. The book has been shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize.

Now on at the Gaiety Theatre, Sebastian Barry's Boss Grady's Boys stars Pat Shortt and Tom Hickey as Mick and Josey -two bachelor brothers living a meagre existence on a 40-acre farm somewhere on the Cork/Kerry border. This is a Noel Pearson production of a play first performed in 1988. It's directed by Jim Culleton.

The Model Arts Centre in Sligo has undergone a major transformation and is now an extensive art space taking in galleries, a theatre and concert hall. Ahead of its official opening later this month, the View visited the current exhibition of water colours and drawings by Jack B Yeats. The Living Ginger showcases Jack Yeats' well-documented interest in outsiders and represents early work from 1898 to 1910.

Cathy Davey's latest CD 'The Nameless' has just recently come in at no 1 on the Irish album charts, the Independent Release Charts and the iTunes Charts on the very first week of release. Here with the first television performance of her new single, 'Dog'.
