The arts with moving parts! Mercury Lane is a story-driven arts series that features a rather radical 'front-person free' approach, offering a cluster of short documentaries, poetry and musical performances each week. Reporters (Kim Webby, Sam Hunt, Chris Knox, Colin Hogg and Marcus Lush) occasionally lurk round the edges, serving the stories, but Mercury Lane's tack is to put the artists themselves in the middle of the picture, exploring what makes them tick as much as what makes their art click.
