Description

We read the papers so you don’t have to. Today: A.I. Wanna Hold Your Hand. The Beatles release their final song with a little help from their friend artificial intelligence and the papers are obsessed. Straight to voicemail, old man! Your phone habits reveal your age, the Telegraph reports. Plus – Pulp fiction. Artist David Shrigley recycles copies of The Da Vinci Code and turns them into Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four. Why??

Andrew Harrison is joined by journalist Holly Thomas and comedian Athena Kugblenu.
