Summary

More Mark, more Simon, more mindless natter – and some movie reviews for good measure! This week’s episode sees Simon sit down with director and Take diehard Alice Troughton, who’s in the studio to discuss her film debut ‘The Lesson’, a mystery-thriller about an aspiring young writer who accepts a tutoring position at the estate of his literary idol only to become ensnared in a web of family secrets. Mark also offers his thoughts on the film, along with reviewing ‘Dumb Money’, Craig Gillespie’s star-studded dramatisation of the David-and-Goliath, real events, which saw a group of savvy Redditors game the stock market, making a mall video game store the world’s hottest company in the process; and ‘Expend4bles’, the fourth instalment of the Stallone and Statham-helmed franchise, which sees the team assigned to stop a terrorist organisation smuggling nuclear warheads that will ignite a conflict between Russia and the US. High-octane indeed. The Box Office Top 10 and What’s On are covered as usual.

0:00.0	It's Dr. Karen from the referral podcast here just dropping in to bust yet another myth,
0:04.8	but this time it's not medical.
0:06.8	Now it's a common misconception that a TV licence is just for watching stuff on a TV,
0:11.8	rather than a laptop or a phone, and you only need it if you're watching BBC content.
0:16.4	This is false information.
0:18.2	The licence gives you access to over 400 live TV channels too, for around 44p a day.
0:24.4	You can get your licence and find out more info at www.tvl.co.uk slash code.
0:42.6	There's much comfort to be had in familiar clothing, don't you think?
0:47.7	Yes.
0:48.7	Yeah.
0:49.7	I just like your t-shirt, so…
0:51.7	Oh, thank you.
0:52.7	Sorry.
0:53.7	Well, you get a t-shirt.
0:54.7	You think, well, this is quite nice, but it doesn't have the softness and warmth and charisma
1:02.7	as an old rail-tambotless t-shirt.
1:05.2	Exactly.
1:06.2	And bearing in mind how old the rail-tambotless are, I mean, that's been through the wash
1:10.2	a few hundred times, I would say.
1:13.0	Doesn't that give it character in charge?
1:14.4	It does.
