DOCUMENTARY ON ONE: For the Love of Star Wars For the Love of Star Wars Matthew O'Brien has been counting down to Thursday 17th December 2015 for over a year now. That's the day when the new movie in the epic Star Wars saga - The Force Awakens - opens in cinemas worldwide. Matthew has been hooked on Star Wars since he was four years old. He has an enormous collection of memorabilia, can recite each scene verbatim and claims that he thinks of the movies as his Bible. In this documentary, Matthew invites us into his world; the passionate, committed and curious world of a serious Star Wars fan. RTÉ Radio 1, Saturday 21st November, 2.00pm

ARENA As a singer/songwriter, Marc Carroll has flown under the radar for many years but garnered a loyal and devoted following. He has always been drawn musically to the voice of the outsider, distinct and unique voices that, as he says, 'refreshed your soul'. His own career has taken him from punk, to rock and on to a solo career where he honed his own sound which prompted one critic to say "..a soul full of The Byrds and The Buzzcocks...he could move to Nashville and become a millionaire". He's live in session on Arena today so you have a chance to decide for yourself whether that statement is on the money. RTÉ Radio 1, Monday 23rd November, 7.00pm

ARENA U2's 'iNnocence + eXperience' tour arrived home to Dublin last night and on today's show we get the critical verdict. It's been almost five years since people last saw them in concert so has it been worth the wait? U2 wanted iNnocence + eXperience to be not just a rock concert, it was to be an 'experience' in the full sense of the word - does it fulfill their concept RTÉ Radio 1, Tuesday 24th November, 7.00pm
