Summary

Fauns and fascism ahoy, as Hannah gets Yosra and Mick to watch Guillermo Del Toro’s 2006 dark fantasy, Pan’s Labyrinth, set in post-civil war Spain. It throws up a lot of questions: Just how good is Ivano Baquero? Would you trust a fairy-tale creature? Who in the 21st Century is buying little statues of Francisco Franco? And why does Mick Jagger get a mention? Also contains – inevitably – some history chat, and what’s possibly a revelation of Hannah’s other career as a spy. Finally, Mick would like to apologise to Stoke-on-Trent. It’s just a joke. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/standardissuespodcast. Hosted on Acast.
