Ellen West - web producer | 16:01 UK time, Monday, 15 December 2008

This week we've gathered together some of our favourite items from 2008 for a 'best of' show - from Andrew Graham-Dixon on Marcel Duchamp to Mark Kermode on the UK's smallest cinema, it's a diverse mix. Do you have a favourite item from this year - perhaps our piece on the anniversary of Local Hero, the Raconteurs performing in the studio or our interview with Steve McQueen? Let us know what's grabbed your attention.

    I'm a big convert to the show this year - the enthusiasm from the presenters is very inspiring and its great to see a show that combines anything and everything creative, whatever genre or media.

    2 favourites this year, the pure celebration of local hero and the ongoing debate of what is art (or just good art) between Mark & Andrew with Twombly etc.

    Looking forward to some more ranting in '09!

    Mark Kermode's Local Hero segment was great. I was at the filming of episode 16 and it was great to see the workings of the programme and enjoy the humour and easy professionalism of Lauren and Mark. The first song from the Fence Collecive was a belter.

    Thanks for the tickets.

    Merry Christmas.

    We've got some great live music coming up this year. In next week's show we should have (you can never guarantee it until the programme has been filmed) Antony and the Johnsons performing tracks from their new album.
