Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!
Let the cinematic streak be unbroken, as Pip chats with the second brother combo on the podcast - it’s the directorial duo of THE BLAINE BROTHERS!
You may be familiar with the two from previous works such as Nina Forever (which was HIGH on a previous Pip’s films of the year list), and maybe you’ve already become aware of the Sara Pascoe series Out Of Her Mind (featuring Pip himself), but if not - prepare to investigate all of these and more when you spend some time in the company of the Chris and Ben Blaine! It’s a really engaging chat about all things film, as well as pre-lockdown days, playwright vs Da Vinci, letting yourself make mistakes, tearing up the film makers handbook, constraints, the fault of “Kill your darlings”, subconscious typecasting, their production process and making a BBC series - as well as just about everything else in between. Ace stuff, you’ll love it.

0:00.0 | Welcome, welcome, welcome. This is the distraction pieces podcast episode 352. |
0:06.4 | And this week I'm joined by a pair of people, which is incredibly rare for me. |
0:11.0 | A lot of you are now outside of drunk casts. I don't generally have two people on at once. |
0:15.3 | But these are two people who come in appear. It's the blame brothers. |
0:18.1 | And I got to work with them recently after being a big fan of one of their films, |
0:22.4 | Nina Forever. I got to work with them on out of her mind. |
0:25.3 | Now we don't give any spoilers, I don't think. |
0:27.9 | But out of her mind is on I Player at the Moment. |
0:30.4 | All six episodes, half an hour each. |
0:32.9 | But this was a great chat. It was great to sit down and kind of obviously talk about their career |
0:38.1 | and everything else. But also have a bit of a post-mortem. |
0:41.4 | Often when you make a film or a show, unless it's someone who, you know, you've kept in good contact |
0:46.8 | with or wherever, you do your job on the day and then you see the thing. |
0:51.5 | And then that's kind of that. So it's really nice to sit down and have a bit of a |
0:57.3 | go over it all. Since this conversation, I've watched the whole series and been |
1:02.8 | as blown away as I was expected. You'll hear from the podcast how blown away by the script, |
1:07.5 | I wasn't how it started to be part of it. I was, yeah, it was great to go and watch and see |
1:14.0 | how amazingly these boys translated it all onto screen and just, yeah, they nailed it. |
1:19.2 | It's exciting. It's a script and a show that takes a lot of risks and that does a lot of |
1:25.6 | unusual stuff. And I think that kind of thing is so important. In all genres, you know, |
1:31.3 | we kind of think of risk taking and doing a step in a way from the norm as being in more |
1:37.1 | indie drama and kind of stuff like that. But a BBC sitcom pushing the, those boundaries is awesome. |
