Summary

This week we're celebrating some of the talented past TSP guests who've been recognised at this year's BAFTAs. This episode with Marc Munden first aired September 23rd 2021. Hello mates. Hope you're all keeping well. Sorry about the no-show last week. It's all getting a bit busy for us two at the moment. We're back with a belter this week though. It's a chat with director Marc Munden. Marc's visionary oeuvre is pretty astonishing in its breadth and scale. You may have seen his most recent directorial work Help starring Stephen Graham and previous TSP guest Jodie Comer on Channel 4. It's a masterpiece and if you haven't already checked it out, it's an absolute must. Marc and Craig touch on previous works such as Bermondsey Boy, The Third Day, Utopia, National Treasure, The Secret Garden and others. They chat through Mark's childhood in North London, his abruptly halted propensity for mathematics, his love of storytelling, the impact of European arthouse cinema on him and loads, loads more. It's a fantastic hour or so which we're sure you'll adore. It's episode 161 of the Two Shot Podcast with the fantastic Marc Munden. Get in touch...

How the devil eye at first off apologies to apologies, actually.

One, I've just put a very delicate cycle of washing on in the apartment that I'm in in Brighton.

So if there's a background of low rotation, drums, whols, then I'm really sorry and also as you can hear.

0:47.0

The church bells have been going for about 45 minutes at the moment.

0:51.0

I would have been trying to record this in-tracer. We're just going to bear with all these slight annoyances.

0:59.0

Yeah, how are you? You could. Are you having sonic problems as I am? I hope not.

I'd be having no problems over and you're having a fantastic week.

For those that aren't on social media, I did make an apology.

And I watched it. I was broken and devastated and I watched it again.

2:37.0

And I saw beauty in the devastation. It's a hero in watch. But it's an important watch.
