Summary
A revenge record from the pop star Lily Allen has led to a storm of negative headlines for its alleged inspiration – her estranged husband, David Harbour.
It’s unfortunate timing for the Stranger Things star – with the final season of the Netflix hit dropping at the end of November.
As if that wasn’t enough, there have also been allegations of workplace bullying on the set of the show that made him a superstar.
What does all this mean for Harbour? And will it affect the finale of one of Netflix’s biggest blockbusters?
Niall is joined by Sky’s entertainment editor Claire Gregory and Emily Bootle, Culture Commissioning Editor at The i Paper.
Producer: Natalie Ktena
