Hugh Grant talks about his new psychological thriller Heretic, where he plays a man who lures two young female missionaries into his home for an intense debate about belief and faith that takes increasingly sinister turns.

The Government has pledged to build 1.5 million new homes by 2029 - but what will they look like? Winner of the Royal Institute of British Architects' 2024 Neave Brown Award for Housing, architect Jessam Al-Jawad and the Observer's architecture critic Rowan Moore discuss the future look of our towns and cities and how Europe could provide inspiration for social housing.

The Booker Prize will be awarded next month and Yael van der Wouden has been shortlisted for her first novel, The Safekeep. It examines the silent histories and repression of 1960s Dutch society through the prism of two very different women and the contested house they occupy.
