Hello, welcome along to this week's podcast. Should we have got some podcast correspondence?

0:06.8

Okay. Additional correspondence, Robbie. It's Robbie Knight in for Simon and Mark again this week.

0:12.1

But these people don't seem to know Andrew Sharman, he says, whoever's driving the boat this week.

0:18.0

But do you know what? If there's one thing that we've established over the time that we've

0:21.7

been covering this programme during the summer, it's that we've got from the mouth of

0:26.4

Luke Best on himself. The answer to that question. No, no, no, who was driving the boat? We do, we do know.

0:31.7

In fact, we should get Simon and Mark to replay that clip on next week's show. We all know, this is

than you might think, love it. You can easily spot us in screenings with the ones

chuckling at points where no one else does. Tinky Tonk and all that stuff regards Andrew.

1:34.9

You NASCAR fan? No. But I am a Cars 3 fan actually and I think the racing sequences are beautifully

done. I love the thing that picks are driving out now where the backgrounds are becoming more

1:45.9

and more photoreal in their films or in some of their films. The animations are unbelievable.

1:49.6

But then the characters on those backgrounds are becoming more and more cartoony. So it's almost
