London, Sep 10 American singer Barbra Streisand is to be interviewed by Brit film critic Jonathan Ross for an episode of his BBC One chat show.

An entire show, which has been branded as 'Friday Night With Streisand and Ross', will be dedicated to 67-year-old Streisand, reports the BBC.

The singer/actress will be discussing her career and also perform some of her classic hits and material from her new album, 'Love Is The Answer', on the programme which will be broadcast on October 2.

A spokeswoman for Streisand said the BBC One show would be the star's first studio interview in the UK since she spoke with Des O'Connor in the 1980s.

It has a collection of jazz standards, which will show the singer performing tracks including 'Smoke Gets In Your Eyes' and 'In The Wee Small Hours Of The Morning'. (ANI)
