You're not going to answer million questions.
You've not got to go into a box.
You've not got to open any boxes.
Give a urine sample.
None of that, you know?
Nothing.
There's been some very illegitimate competitions I've ended.
I'm realising.
Give a urine sample.
The stuff they've asked me to do.
Oh, gosh.
For PPI?
What?
They asked you to Pee PPI for PPI.
Oh gosh, Joanna.
Well, it made sense in the moment.
Okay, so back to the music.
So the music that I have chosen has come from unusual dance sequences in movies.
Right?
I'm going real, like, minority genre here.
Niche.
Very, very niche.
So I've found some research like weird,
unexpected dance moves, like sequences in movies.
Okay.
And this is Rick James' super freak.
And it's...
Rick James, bitch!
It's from Little Miss Sunshine.
So I think we need to...
we need to like, it's Friday, come on, let's dance.
Friday, let's get that Friday feeling.
Friday funk, so come on.
Rick James, Super Freak.
It's background chill.
That's a super freak.
That girl's a super freak.
I love that.
I love that.
I don't know whether I love Super Freak or whether I love, can't touch this.
Yeah, I know.
It's pretty much the same song, Rived.
I was thinking Ghostbusters, but I don't know why.
Ghostbusters.
I don't know why it was Ghostbusters.
I'd like challenge anyone to listen to
either of those songs though and not
move. Yes.
Have you ever done that at a party where you've put on
like a song like that and then it's the rule is it's the
first one to dance losers?
No. Yeah, yeah. So you've got to be there like
really not moving and it's so hard
because you're hearing these like amazing beats and you're like
oh I just want to move my hip.
And everyone. And then because it like
builds up for a couple of minutes of nobody moving
when you do get to move everybody puts like
crazy moves out and there's
legs and arms and hips and everything
it's like. But I think I think
some parties now they say hipsters don't dance eh
so they just like
just like so
I hate when you go to really cool
a party and there's a really good DJ
but everyone just standing around is dunting
looking cool
so I love a house party
I just any party
I don't even have to have a drink I'm up there
I'm up there I don't
on stage whatever
I don't like going to parties and they just talk
everyone stands around talking I hate talky parties
I hate small
small yeah talkie parties
especially when you don't know anyone
you're like how well
What do you do?
Five hours chatting.
And you say you're an actor and they're like, oh, what have you been in?
Yeah.
And you're like, nothing that you'd say.
I say, your mum?
Oh.
That's probably why you don't get invited to parties, Steve.
Oh, man.
You know, telling them that you do and their mom.
Right, ho.
Little bit of entertainment news, I think.
What's going on?
It's been, you know, week by week, I'm not surprised anymore when stuff I have.
happens in the news. It's just like, oh, has it?
Boom. What else? Bring it on.
After Bradgelina, that's it. I just give up now.
There's no hope. Well, there's been a split, a big sort of a split.
But people weren't so in love with this couple, so I don't think, but they were in love
with the girl.
Who?
Kylie.
Minogue.
So Kylie Minogue.
I don't even knew she was even in a relationship.
Oh, yeah. She was engaged to this, I mean, he is pretty hungry.
He's like this 28-year-old actor.
Shut. I know. And she's 49.
I was like, go, Callie.
She leveled up
She caught some more life
She caught some rings like Sonic
Well she actually did
Catch a bad fish in the end
Because they were like engaged
Going to get married and everything
And then obviously his profiles
Raised massively since he's been dating
Kylie, fucking an ogre
And then apparently
She's found him cheating
With another actress
And so she's given him the boot
And she kicked him out this week
And she's like apparently
You know, she's mortified.
She's mortified, you know, she found the lover a lot.
Well, she thought, you know, so boo-hoo.
Booh.
What a epic mess up.
Just Kylie Minot, no, dude.
It's every guy's dream, man.
There's gone hot pants.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, she ain't.
She ain't.
But in the positive spin on her dramatic month,
was that she won this, like, big copyright case in America.
Really?
Because Kylie Jenner wanted to copyright the name
Kylie and said that nobody else could use it because she wants to use it on
like brands and I don't know putting her name on all sorts of shit that she doesn't even
make the fudge does she think she is exactly that's what the judge said so the judge
said Kylie he she petitioned to say that Kylie Minot couldn't use the name Kylie
she's trying to get Kylie Minot ban is she not who the I swear that if I see this
girl oh my gosh I'm a shit my Chihuahua on that I know you do that
um and so basically she Kylie won and the judge were basically like kind of
She's an international artist.
Who the fuck are you?
Yeah, like, what do you?
Who are you?
What do you do, apart from grow your boobs and your lips, Kylie Jenner?
Yeah, yeah.
I'm calling you out.
Trust me.
Oh, meet me.
Catch me outside.
How about that?
How about that?
How about that?
Can't out.
I'd take her on any day.
Just have to pull her weave and pop her lips and she just like deflate.
Oh my God, I can't believe you whether that little girl.
Oh my God.
She's actually got merch out.
They catch me outside girl.
Oh yeah.
So if anyone doesn't know what we're talking about,
one of the most things to go viral this year is this young 14 year old girl in America.
She was on Dr. Phil and she had such a strong accent.
She was trying to shout at an audience member.
Instead of saying, catch me outside.
She was like, cash me outside.
How about that?
And like everyone's memed it.
It's gone around the internet.
Everyone spoofed it.
But do you know, her Instagram went from 60,000 followers to 2 million followers in like a
week, two weeks.
Swear?
She's got two million followers.
Well, I'm following the wrong,
I've looked at the wrong one because
I tried to find it and she's only got
200 followers.
No, no, that's a thing.
You're following some other 14 year old.
That's weird.
I'm trying to find a video.
I was like, oh, she's only got 200 followers.
But I don't know if it's that healthy to have
two million people follow your Instagram when you're
14 years old.
Like, I think it might kind of
and she's going to think that
she's going to ride off that forever.
I can imagine I being for you.
Go outside, how about it?
Like 90.
Catch me outside.
I know.
She's going to be that one show pony.
It's like, what's this?
One trick pony.
That's the one.
That's it.
One show pony.
I just called her one-legged pony.
She has done some sketches with like, you know, a few teeny bopper actors from America and stuff like that.
Okay.
They're trying to like.
squeeze every last dime out of her.
Yeah, but I had credit to her
for jumping on the merch
so quickly.
Jumping on that merch.
But she might get sued because she's
using the champion sign.
But, I don't know, she's
a cash-me-outside, girl.
She's a catch-me-out-as-at, so...
Nobody cares. Nobody cares, isn't it?
Nobody cares.
And if you do care, catch her outside.
But you know what she'd say to the judge
they'd be like, you can't use that.
She'd be like, yeah, well, catch me outside.
How about that?
I can imagine it going down like that.
What else have we seen?
What else have I seen?
Some viral.
Some viruling stuff.
Well, of course, the two main memes now.
I like the Beyonce, that was it.
The Beyonce, they were, because she's having twins.
Beyonce's having twins.
Oh, and the memes have been absolutely hilarious.
I like the one where they did her as twins.
The movie, it was her and Jay-Z.
and the Twins film, you know, with Danny DeVito and Arnold Schwarzeno.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Also, I saw Jay-Z in the floral thing.
I retweeted that, check that out on my Instagram.
The way she, Beyonce announced her pregnancy,
is she put up a photo on Instagram of herself in a bra,
surrounded by flowers with, like, an old lady's neck curtains on her head.
That's the way she wanted to do it.
And everybody just fell in love of it.
And I think it's like the most liked picture on Instagram ever now.
I swear.
Which is crazy.
I think it's overtaken.
it's overtaken
Selena Gomez
drinking some Coca-Cola.
What is this world?
What is this world?
Celina Gomez drinking Coca-Cola
was the most...
That was the most viewed
and then like Taylor Swift
with her rabbit or something, I don't know.
Really?
Yeah-ha.
How random.
It's really random, I know.
And I've taken some very good pictures
of my food
and I'm wondering,
why are they into the most like thing
on Instagram?
Me, I arrange those carrots.
That's brilliant.
No, yeah, I do like...
that one where they put Jayzie in
the green doily and the flowers
that's another one of my
favourites as well I enjoyed that.
Do you know that she's not
the only celebrity to be having twins?
Shut up!
Who else is having them?
George Clooney and his wife.
Oh my gosh.
They're going to have a twin off. They're going to pop about the same
time and they're going to have a twin off.
Crazy.
It could be like robot wars or something like that.
I know right.
little mini,
celebrity twinsies.
But people are just popping,
there are so many babies being dropped now.
George Clooney's,
oh, hey, that's a...
I know.
I mean, I'm not judging, but...
I know.
No, but he's always...
I don't remember a time
where he wasn't grey.
I know.
George Clooney's always been
about 50.
Yeah.
For like 30 years.
He's been about 50.
We're not really...
Just, just.
Oogie, okay.
He's brilliant.
He's absolutely brilliant.
A little bit.
We're about to have our first guest on the show,
so I'm going to go back to another one of my random dance sequence in movies.
Okay.
Stuff, so let me have a little look, see what I've got here.
Well, actually, this one is a dance sequence in a movie,
but it's not actually that random, because it's actually the finale of the movie.
Okay.
You know what it is.
You know what it is.
Can you guess?
It's one of the best dance movies ever.
Well, that's debatable.
Is it?
Yeah, because I like different...
stuff.
Okay, I'm going to give you...
I'm going to give you a...
If it's footloose, I swear I'm going to kick this table.
It is the 80s though, but honestly, this song
is the sex. Have you seen a film called
Crazy Stupid Love with Ryan Gosling?
No, you and this Ryan Gosler.
Because honestly, in this movie,
there's a part where he says to the girl,
she says, what's you move? He plays this
Lothario, picks up hundreds of women, and she said, what she moved?
Lafario, good word.
I've been reading my dictionary.
And he says, well, I played
the song from Dirty Dancing and
they want to sleep with me.
And I was like, what?
Exactly.
And I was like, that ain't going to work.
And then she said, that ain't going to work.
And then he does it.
He plays the song.
He does the move.
And I wanted to sleep with him.
So, you know, let's play the song.
I'll show you the move.
And we'll see what we can do.
So did the move work?
Yes.
Yeah, when you explained it, yeah, it did work.
I'm definitely going to try this Godzilla move.
Ryan Gosling, crazy stupid love move.
It makes any girl want to have something.
sex review to that song. Exactly.
I'm going to learn this. Right, we've got
our first guest on the show. A big
huge welcome to Molly Roberts and James
Cooney. Hello. Hello. Welcome,
coming. Yeah, everyone, you can hear everyone. That's all good.
Great. Tell us where you're from and
what you're doing at the moment to our listeners.
Cool. Well, I'm, yeah, I'm Molly
and I run a company called Polaroid Theatre. And we're doing a show at
Vult Festival at the moment called This Must Be the Place
by Brad Birch and Kenny Emson, which we did at Latitude Festival.
2016. I went to Latitude
2016. Did you? Did you?
My first Laotitude. My first
Latitude.
Where? No. I didn't do this show. I was working
there though. Sure.
Is it? Is it?
Is this like, the Latitude's like a festival
with a difference, isn't it? Yeah, it's got a
cabaret tent, a comedy tent
and music, a poetry tent.
Where does it happen?
Norfolk. Oh my gosh, I can
I should know that. Suffolk.
Suffolk. Northwick. Northwick.
Suffolk. Yeah, yeah.
Like South London.
It's near Norwich, anyway.
It's near Norwich, England.
He's from East End.
He didn't really go out of the East End.
I don't get out of Bowmatch.
I want day he released a foobar.
Brilliant.
So was that the first time
that you did it as your company
at Latitude?
Yeah, it's the first time
we've been going as a company
for five years
and we performed at Latitude
before the year before
with a show called Plastic
by Kenny Emson
who's one of the writers of this show.
But this was the first time
we've done this particular play
at Latitude.
And then we brought it back.
I thought Brad Brinscher's the
I'm confused now.
So it's been by two writers.
Brad Birch and
Kenny Emson
Oh, okay
Yeah
Two of people
Collaboration
Two of them wrote it
Yeah
Line by line
Line line
Line by line
Back to back
Yeah
It's that edgy
That's why it rhymes so much
Yeah
And James is in the show
Yes
Yes
What's it about
This must be the place
What?
Well how do we put it into words
James
So it's about
It's like
It's two
There's kind of two story strands
One of them
Is it features
Adam
Who I play
and Adam has like a lot of emotional baggage
that he needs to kind of sort out
and he kind of goes on a journey
to kind of figure all that out
and that's kind of his side of the story
and then the other side we have Felix
and Hamish who play these two guys
who are in this we're not quite sure where
kind of but how would you describe it
like I don't this
a place trying to I suppose trying to escape
their lives and come to the city
it's about sort of millennial crisis
and as young people in our 20s and 30s
where home is and what we're trying to do with our lives, I suppose.
Okay, so they're from outside of London and want to move to London.
Yeah, so Adam's story is someone trying to escape from the city London.
Oh, escape from the city.
He kind of wants to go back.
He's like outside of the country.
And he's been in London for a little while and now feels like he needs to go home.
Okay, wherever home may be.
Exactly.
Okay, I like this.
I like this.
So you've got two country people coming in and one,
city boy going at?
Yes.
Along his lines.
Boom.
Yeah.
Yeah.
In a nutshell.
I should be a film review.
I play Lily, who is Adam's girlfriend trying to deal with whatever he's kind of got going on in his life and the instability.
Don't we all?
Our existences as young people with no stability.
So you do you direct, so do you run the company, do you direct shows as well as being them?
what do you do? What is your involvement? Because you own the company, right?
Yeah. So I set up Polaroid
as a reaction
to kind of finishing drama school in 2011
not feeling like I had, I suppose,
the right exposure for me and some of my peers.
And I wanted to explore work that
I thought that I would want to see and want to make.
And then the company took off a lot more than I thought it would.
And now we've been working with some brilliant writers,
actors, directors from all over the place.
Like, we're recording young writers program.
old vickney voices
various drum schools yeah
and so now and I act
professionally as well
and then we work with loads of
loads of people to make to make great
well we like it good
Molly's basically like theatre superwoman
like she does all the
all the producing all the acting
is it like you write the theme tune
sing the theme tune
thank you James
thank you for that
it's good it's really good
and you can't see Molly but
Monny's really, really young, so for her to achieve all that, it's amazing.
I can't believe it.
God on you.
It's hard to put on.
Because I attempted with some friends to put on two plays,
and we just kind of hit so many roadblocks, especially in London.
It was just so pricey to get almost any corner space or get anyone to say.
Yeah, I suppose that's what we want to do with Polaroid, particularly now.
We found our focus a bit, and we want to provide the space for emerging and established artists.
We want to try out new work and give them a space.
to make sure that they can reach the next level I suppose
which I think that's what's missing
for us
so do you
so does Polaroid have like
a home is like like that you attach
to a theatre or do you just go into different
theatres and stuff like that? We go
all over the shop really it depends where
our what play we're developing
and where that's place but we've developed
a lot of stuff in London and we're supported by the
Camden Collective which is great
it's a creative space
it's kind of a big arts hub which supports
businesses and they give us space
and offer space to operate from which is
amazing. Amazing. Yeah so you need that
space so you can't rehearse on the street.
And we're supported by the Old Vic
New Talent Department as well
which is really helpful.
Great. That's amazing. That's a really cool
name up there like yeah.
The old Vick.
Clans.
Kevin Clacey. Basically is my manager.
So tell us a bit more about
this Vault Festival. It's
a festival, a theatre festival. Where's it
happening and tell us a bit more about it
yeah how do you get involved in it
it's a Waterloo Vaults it started
what like midway through Jan
maybe so or like the end of January
and it goes through till like mid-March
yeah it's a really long
long program it was only just like
a couple weeks no no it's six weeks
they've been running for I think about four or
four yearsish it's run by
Matt Burtt Tim Wilson and
Andy George
and they are doing such amazing work
it's like the amount of opportunities
they give to emerging companies and established artists
to showcase a work in such a central London space is amazing.
It's so cool.
And there's parties, the bars, the bands.
And it's such a good time of year for it as well
because it's so dreary.
Exactly.
Get in the vault.
Into the damp vault.
And sometimes I've got art and immersive stuff in there as well.
I remember I'm walking into this art space
and it's like in the art and stuff like that.
There's always something called at the vaults, right?
It's great.
You can meet amazing.
need to drama.
Yeah, it's inspirational.
So how would anybody, they have to Google
Walti Volts?
And they're going to get their tickets.
Yeah, it's vault festival.com
and then everything is on there.
And we've actually,
Shakara sold out this week for our show.
Go on.
Go on.
But we've added an extra matinee
tomorrow at 4.30.
Oh, wicked.
Oh, for like last minute people.
So people get in it Saturday.
You don't want to be outside.
I do think weather's like this.
4.30, bars are open.
Great.
And they've got a big, the artful badger.
Do you know the artful badger?
I know the artful dodger.
It's not Oliver.
But yeah.
Same person, different thing.
They're doing a really big party tonight and tomorrow.
So it's their good nights come down Friday in Saturday nights.
The artful badger, what is that?
They're just like big.
I genuinely don't know who you told them.
You're looking to me like I know.
They go, like they have, I, they have, I, they, they, they, they, they, they, they,
They hosted all the lay night parties at Wilderness Festival.
Oh, nice.
Yeah.
So where's this party?
At fault.
At fault.
So the Artful Badge is not the place, it's the person.
It's the people, the collective.
The event, the company.
The party.
I'm confusing you.
I don't know.
I've heard about these.
I've got a couple of friends that do them and it's like a theatre company,
but they're like an entertainment part.
They do parties.
What?
So basically it's a collective of dancers,
entertainers, you might be like fire eaters or...
What?
Like, yeah, and it's like a circus
and you get hired by these big events to go in
and you wear elaborate costumes
and you basically, you make the party atmosphere.
What?
They're amazing.
That sounds like a party.
I need to be at.
You need to go.
Hold on, hold on.
When's this again?
Tonight and tomorrow.
Tonight and tomorrow night.
Only.
How much?
I'm on this.
I don't know.
I'm not running this.
Is it?
I don't know.
I'm down for that.
I want to see people.
Yeah, but make sure you're
Come to the play first.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, all that, all that, all that, all that.
Which one's free?
I'm joking, I'm joking, I'm joking.
I'm joking, I'm joking.
I'm so joking.
I will, I, well, I can't believe you sold out so quickly.
Like, I'll say congratulations to you.
But it's going to be running until March your play or is it?
No, no.
We've just been doing it this week because, Volt,
because they want to make sure that there's a lot of turnover of artists.
they gave kind of a week
max to people.
But people can still get in tomorrow.
Yeah, tomorrow at 4.30.
Brilliant.
Yeah.
And so did you guys meet through the company?
How did you get to be involved in the company?
Because of you agreed it.
I think so I did a play up in Edinburgh
called Bottleneck back in 2012.
And then I think Molly had heard about that
through recommendation.
And then I first did a play with her called The Allotment,
which was we did like a research and development
a couple days
where we ended up
doing a reading of it
at the old Red Lion
right
and that was kind of
like an ongoing thing
and then I did
plastic last year
at latitude
and then
came along with this as well
so yeah
what was plastic about
I like the name of that
Plastics great play
James you can explain that
so plastic's written by Kenny
who wrote
one side of this must be the place
and plastic again
was about four
four people
four young people
looking back at a certain day
in their life
and how that's like affected the rest of their lives.
And it's great.
With Kenny and Brad's writing,
they,
I think they've got such a,
they're just so good at dialogue, basically.
And Kenny's writing is kind of half-spoken word,
and it's kind of the way that it's been presented
by both our directors on this show,
Justin Norderbert and Josh Roach.
It's kind of gig style.
So it's just really exciting.
And I think it should really speak to,
to the people that it's about, I suppose, and for.
That sounds interesting.
Now you've gone in front of Spanish.
Now, now you've got me.
Yeah, I'm hurt.
That sounds different.
I'm more of a film actress or film TV and internet.
That's an hour thing.
Internet actress.
Doesn't sound good, does it?
But then I, weird the other day, I just got this huge urge.
I was like, I want to see a play.
I really want to see something, like, real life that, like,
we can't re-record this or we can't edit this out or put a filter on it or whatever.
I want to see, come and see this.
We want to make, yeah, we make fast-paced, exciting, eclectic theatre
that kind of blurs the line between, I suppose, theatre and gigs and parties.
And, yeah, it sounds like, it's exciting.
What I love about Kenny and Brad's writing similarly is that it has to be seen in the theatre.
You have to be there in that space because the way that they write is so lyrical
that it's actually really lovely to be in a space with lots of people and all hear that together.
It's because we don't usually do that now.
We don't really have any spaces where we all come together.
and sharing a thing that is live with people on stage.
We're always behind screens.
We're always behind TV.
You used to have assembly every day of your life in school.
You'd always be in a room with someone.
Or back in the day, everybody went to places like churches and stuff,
so you'd have this big communal thing.
We don't have that anymore if I was just behind the little computer screens.
That's so secular.
Yeah, exactly.
That's what this play particularly is about.
I suppose it's the disconnection that sort of world creates.
And what's the plan sort of after next week?
Are you going to go and do more projects, Polaroid?
Do they do anything else?
Yeah, well, plastic that Kenny's of the play.
That we're hoping to tour this year.
That's in development.
So keep an eye out for that.
Hopefully that will come to London as well.
And then we're going to see what happens to this must be the place
because it's had a lot of nice attention and buzz around it,
which has been really exciting.
Brilliant.
Watch this space.
I'm watching, I'm watching.
Well, thank you so much for coming on, guys.
It's brilliant.
Is this your first radio or you radio pros?
My first time.
My first time.
It's done Italian interviews.
Radio clan.
We took their radio virginity.
Thank you.
Thank you.
So where can we get you up?
Have you got like a twin Instagram?
Yeah, yeah.
We're not on Instagram, but Facebook and Twitter at Polaroid Theatre.
Polaroid spelled with an E.
Polaroid.
Polaroid, not Polaroid.
How did you get the name Polaroid again, Molly?
Let's not speak about that, James.
How did you?
Yeah, how did you?
Why is it called Polaroid again?
Well.
Was it a typo?
Initially,
been seen as a typo but then you know turn into a real thing yeah yeah yeah five
years ago but you know we don't want to get confused between the camera Polaroid and
oh yeah no that's true that's true you don't want to get sued or shut down
well exactly yeah they probably might have copyrighted that name yeah yeah so
there was a very smart forcied move it was a smart move by Molly Roberts
thank you go Molly Robbins right we're gonna go back into the music um this
This is from the karate kid.
Yes.
This is one of my favorite.
This is one of my favorite,
the new karate kid.
Oh.
This is one my favorite.
Actually, Jackie Chan's good.
Sorry.
Yeah, I know right?
He's great.
Yeah.
I don't mind Will Smith's little boy,
you know, he's quite good,
but this is one of the best songs for the gym,
or when you're feeling motivated.
Okay.
It's called Remember the Name.
It's by Fort Minor.
Back Row and Chill with Johanna James
on Fubbar Radio.
You're back listening to Back Row and Chill with Johanna James.
And myself, Teage World.
T-J-K-K-Tage World.
Right, talking all things, sort of theatre.
The Valtz Festival at the Waterloo Vaults sounds awesome.
We're just talking about we really want to get down there.
Yes, there's so much going on down that place.
I love a good festival.
I've been down to the vaults.
I haven't, yeah.
A couple, I think.
Here did I go.
Not last year, the year before, I think it was.
It's really, really cool.
There's just so much going on there.
It's literally the old arch is kind of underneath.
The arches by Waterloo, yeah.
It's so cool.
So yeah, do, do, do, go check out the vaults to December until March and check out their play as well.
This must be the place.
And, yeah, I did like a festival last year.
I hadn't ever been to a festival and I did three last summer.
Is it?
I just jumped straight in there.
I did Latitude, Islewai and Secret Solstice in Iceland.
Secret Solstice?
What's that?
A secret solstice festival.
It's in Iceland and it's on the summer solstice.
Which where in Iceland there is no nighttime for that week.
So it was the daytime, which was absolute, a complete mind fuck.
Because it was three in the morning and I was coming back to my tent.
Everyone, like people were drunk and stumbling around.
But it was the daytime.
There was no nighttime.
And trying to sleep in a tent when it's the day.
Because like tents, like they're so bright.
You can't speak it.
So I was so happy when I got back to England and it became dark.
like when he cried.
I was like,
I miss the stars.
Do you feel like you should just
constantly be awake?
Yeah, yeah, you do.
You just kind of like,
it doesn't feel like it's the evening
because it's, and it's the middle of the night
and there are people walking around and stuff.
This is brilliant.
But there are some really cool festivals
to go to this year as well.
One is Standon Calling,
which Fubar is an official partner for.
It's going to be happening 27th to the 30th of July,
which 30th July is my birthday.
anybody wants to send new some flowers.
Okay.
When does that say that again?
When is it?
30th of July.
Okay, just because you're gonna hear this.
30th of July, okay, okay.
It's in Hertfordshire.
It's about 40 minutes from London,
so it's not fine.
I have to travel the breadth of the world
to get to it.
The breadth of the world.
Because you know when you're at a festival
and you just want to get home
at the end of it,
you're like, I just want to go home
and have a bath and, like, sleep.
Yeah.
Scrub my body.
You feel sticky.
You don't want to travel to,
like, coming back from the island of white,
you have to get, like, a boat,
and then the bus and then, oh.
And you just feel like just jumping in the sea.
So, but this one is not far from London at all.
Yeah.
Right, okay.
And so we've got, so Orbital and our Clean Bandit have been announced.
What?
My God.
This is amazing.
Nadia Rose, fickle friends.
Oh, this is really, really cool.
Stand On Calling.
And it's Stand & Calling.
So you can go to get tickets from the site from stand and calling.com.
And it's a bit different to some of the other festivals because it's got comedy as well.
And there are other like interactive things to do, not just music and burgers.
You know what I mean?
Yes.
I love that.
But they got a DJ set from Faithless and Jack Jones.
Oh, Faithless played Isle of Wight.
And that was one of the most, you know that famous Faithless song?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was like an out-of-body experience.
There were thousands of people just raving to that song.
And I felt like I've been transported back to the 90s.
and I got to live it again
what I missed
because I was only like free when that came out
but um
brilliant
porn again raver
I was a born again raver
on the island wide
so I want to go down there mate
just for I'm loving Jacks Jones
at the moment
and Faithless would be like
amazing
there's hot chip
this is cool
I thought Jack Jones was a
a YouTuber
no this is Jack's Jones
Jack's Jones
Jack's Jones is the new guy's got
that number one at the moment
and Jack Jones is a, he's a Facebooker.
He's the guy that goes up to people and tickles them
and then gets pizza thrown at him.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's like to putting himself in trouble.
You're nice to get himself in trouble, definitely.
So yeah, if you're interested in stand and calling,
get on the website and you've got those like early bird tickets.
Oh no, they've sold out in record time.
So now it's tier one tickets.
But I want to go to that so much.
It looks so cool.
My God, let's do some festivals.
We should do some festivals, teach.
We should.
We should.
We need to do it.
I'm going to get spandex shorts on there.
And glitter.
And glitter.
And glitter.
And glitter.
Rolling glitter.
A vest.
You're done.
I'm going to put my short shorts on that.
I love a short shorts in the summer.
You know, like a proper 80s short?
You do, don't you?
Yes.
Hot pants.
Hot pants.
Almost.
Almost.
I don't mind.
Get my legs at.
Get them out.
I've got sexy pins if I.
I must say.
Well, they're very tattooed, don't they?
Yeah, they're heavily tattooed.
So, like, financially, you should really show them off
because you spend a lot of money on your legs.
Yes, technically, sort of.
It was free.
But, yeah, I got the done down at Dharma Tattoo is my friend is the boss there,
one of the best tattoos places in London.
That's why you got so many hats.
That's why I got so many.
I just thought you were loaded.
No, my mate owns Dharma Tattoo, London.
so yeah, check those guys out as well.
Tell them T.J. sent you, you might get a discount.
Not!
Maybe.
Maybe. Maybe me.
I'll see what I can do.
All right, okay.
We've got our second guest of the show coming up soon.
I'm going to go back to some random movie moments
where you can dance in a movie where you didn't expect it.
Yeah, because you kind of threw me off there
because Karate Kid wasn't a dance film, yeah?
It wasn't a dance film.
So I don't know why you went off theme, darling.
Well...
Are we moving away from dance, theme songs?
No, we're coming back in the theme,
We're coming back.
There was a couple of odd stragglers.
Because I started feeling weird, you know what I mean?
This is definitely from, seeing in a movie where you didn't expect was coming.
This is in the film Beetlejuice and it's the banana boat song.
Deo.
Are you ready?
Yes, I love that film.
I love this song.
Let's go for it.
Food Bar Radio presents.
Today I have Juno Dawson with me.
My mum once, oh my God.
She got out her photo album.
Oh, sorry, mum.
She got out her photo album of her gap year.
So this is when my mom was like 18, 19, flicking through and pictures of men.
She was like, yeah, shagged him.
Did him.
I was like, oh, and it's like, why you have to have therapy now.
No, it's just why I am the way I am.
Like mother like daughter.
Oh, God.
Every Wednesday.
The Hannah Witten Show.
From 6pm on Fuba Radio.
Boom.
You're listening to Backrow and Chill with Johanna James and Teage.
Teage.
in the building.
Teage World.
We've got our second guest in the building.
In the studio, it's Dan Hutton.
Welcome.
Hello, thank you for having me.
Welcome to Backrow and Chill.
We're like a film entertainment show
trying to talk about what's good to see at the moment
and also what's not.
And you are directing a play.
Yeah, it's called...
I am. Well, we've got two weeks before we actually start rehearsals.
But we're sort of in the process of like just trying to get
our heads into the thing.
Into the thing.
Getting our heads wrap around it.
And yeah, we start in two weeks time
And then we go up
End of Feb
Where is he going to be popped on?
At the yard in Hackneywick
Oh, yes, I know that.
Hey, it's all right here, you know
It's not too bad
They throw a good party there as well
Don't they?
Yeah, absolutely
You come down to see the show
And then have a party afterwards
Oh my gosh, no, that's a really cool space
It's good
It's intimate, but I've seen like
Like really new, different types of theatre
Like, you know, like, different.
I like it because it's not your regular stuff that you get on at the yard and stuff like that.
Yeah.
How does your play fit in there?
How's it?
Ah, good question.
How do you got it set on?
Well, it's a play about, like, the moment just before something awful happens.
And that space does sort of really big ideas really well.
Because, as you say, it's sort of got this beautiful atmosphere.
Yeah.
And it's built in an old warehouse.
And so when you go in,
it sort of got this layers of history around it
and then you watch a play there
and it's not like watching a play somewhere like a dark room
where the audience where the actors pretend
that the audience isn't there like you're there with the actors
and you know they're totally in the space
and so you can explore these like massive weird
strange ideas in a way that you probably couldn't do elsewhere
yeah and have I use on the floor
the audience no I mean no
they play is on the floor because sometimes people don't have a stage
yeah so there's no stage there
But we're currently working on our design and it may not be all on the ground, is all I will say.
Because I don't want to jinx.
No, I think we've already decided.
And the play's called Big Gun.
It is, yeah.
It's a good name, right?
Yeah.
I can't take credit for that.
That's Nina's title who wrote the play.
Nina Siegel.
Oh, she's, what else has she written?
The name is sparking a little thing.
Yeah, she did a play at the gate theater last year called In the Nighttime and then Brackets before the Sun also rises or before the Sun rises.
Oh, okay.
And that was a play in a similar sort of context.
It was a two-hander.
That was in a far smaller space.
And this sort of explode some slightly bigger ideas.
So this is a two-hander.
Big Guns is a two-hander.
It is, yeah.
Man and lady and lady.
No, two women.
Debra and Jessie, who are both brilliant together.
How did you find them?
We sort of met with a few people,
and they were the people who sort of stuck out
and who felt really exciting to us.
They've both got this amazing sort of
presence and they feel like they really respond to this like deep violence that's in the play.
Really?
Yeah.
Jesse, because I know Jessie, she's really lovely person.
Yeah, she's great, isn't she?
That she's violent.
And she does modelling as well.
She does.
She's quite striking as well.
And, like, for her to, it would be interesting to seeing her be violent or being, like, so
she's so nice.
So I can't imagine that.
Well, one of the conversations that we've, we had a workshop a couple of weeks ago,
and her and Deborah are just so lovely and they're such sort of wonderful souls.
and then we were just sort of trying to get them
to talk about these horrific things
like men coming into rooms with guns
and trying to get them to feel
some sort of like
just the violence that's in there
and trying to get them to feel like they're taking ownership
of these really horrifying ideas
because as you say if you're nice
it's really hard to do that.
Yeah, I really like the picture
of them two there.
Like it's really captured a moment there.
It's like quite a cinematic photo.
The promo photo.
I don't know if you can
see from those pictures you've got as well but they're
Deborah's like holding some massive sausages
and she's got like health juice
yeah
massive sausages that is a massive sausage
yeah that's like party in my house
sausage
party at my hand sausage
I got a sausage
I got the sausage
bring the vino
so yourself so you
is this your
have you done many plays before
or is this one of your directorial debut
yeah I've done a couple of shows
nothing on this sort of scale
like nothing in a room this big
and that's
really exciting to do
something in an auditorium
where the audience sits separate from the actors
and they sit end on
and they sit down in their seats
and there's this big space
because I haven't done work in really
a lot of big spaces
so it's really exciting to try something
with a bit more room
and that has a bit more air around it
because normally I'm used to doing shows
in quite smaller spaces
is a bit stuffier
Is it indoors the odds?
Yeah, it is.
Okay, so even it rains, you can just, you know, you're fine.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's good.
Maybe they should take the roof off and do summer seasons.
I know.
Roll it back like Wimbledon.
There we go.
It's a great space.
It's a great, it's a great place to be around there.
It's quite, there's a lot happening and quite a buzz in and around that happening.
Yeah.
And it's like a few bars and restaurants and stuff.
There are.
And the yard was one of the first things that was there as well, I think.
A few years, like a good five years ago now.
Yes.
and a half years old and one of the first it was around when the Olympics
Park was being built and they needed to find some way of creating artistic
spaces and for young enterprises and things and the yard is one of the first spaces
there and now there's this as you say it amazing wealth of stuff there is it's good it's so good
it's so good so this play is two two hand are you saying two hand or what's the running time
it's an hour we hope yeah with a break without a break just straight through and then you can go
home go have a pint and then get to bed
An hour of like tension.
Yeah.
That is nuts.
And how long have they had to rehearse?
Is it going to?
Yeah, we've gone to rehearses in two weeks time.
And then we've got three weeks before we start.
Because it's on, if anyone's interested, just like in the salad list, it's the 21st of March as it's out.
Is that right?
Yeah.
21st of March to the 8th of April.
Oh my goodness.
It's so scary that we're talking about like those kind of months now.
It's like, where is the year going?
Where is it gone?
Oh my God.
It was only just Christmas, right?
It was only just Christmas, right?
It was only just last year that Donald Trump was being elected.
Oh my gosh.
Oh my God.
But that is a good thing.
If the years whizzing by, then, you know, only three and a half left.
If the planet still still.
Yeah, exactly if we're all still here.
If and when.
So it's like it's the underlying sort of theme of big guns.
Is it Donald Trump?
Well, something you should say that.
Because we, it was really funny.
Nina, I think, wrote this play a couple of years ago in its initial version.
And we met up about it sort of in autumn before any of this kicked off,
although it was sort of after Brexit.
And at that point it sort of felt like a reasonably, not jolly,
but at least it felt like it was sort of just about vague threat, vague violence.
And then Donald Trump was elected, and suddenly the play feels like it's really real again.
And like actually we're all scared.
We feel like we're on the edge.
We don't know how long the world is going to last.
And this play sort of speaks to that really real threat.
idea of fear that we're currently
feeling. I'm intrigued
by this playing. I am.
I'm sitting there. I'm staring
at you. I'm not staring at you because you're weird
but I'm just like
it's interesting.
You've got me hooked. There are questions that have been
asked that I need... Yeah.
I understand what you mean
about at the moment. Everyone
sort of had a bit of a joke about Donald Trump and a bit of a
joke about this and then it's actually
it's like we're sort of sitting there laughing like
that's not funny.
and the other day
when Russia announced
that they were going to decriminalise
beating up your wife
and the battery within the family
is completely, you're not going to get...
It's okay. Yeah, totally fine.
Wow.
And it's like going, it's like backwards steps to
which is just terrifying. And the fact that at the heart
of them there's this like bubbling sort of
violence in that case. And the play
speaks to this as well of the fact that
there is in
some relationships a real fear of violence
that some people may fear.
Yeah.
And all of us
just going around
on daily lives
we might feel like
we're scared
in a way that maybe
we didn't before.
I was deeply,
when Trump,
I was got deeply affected
and I said,
remember I was saying
to my boyfriend,
like,
I'm really actually quite scared
like this is actually happening.
And he was kind of like,
oh no,
nothing,
you wouldn't,
don't worry,
it won't really affect you.
And then he went
and did the Muslim ban
and my boyfriend's from the Middle East
and I was like,
well, we're not going to America,
are we, babe?
And like,
I've got a little friends
from like Iran
and,
and it's just crazy
it's crazy
so actually people saying
oh Donald Trump doesn't affect you
yet does it does it does
totally totally and I mean
what is what comes to you
I mean also I read somewhere
I don't know how true this is
but I read somewhere
that
Russia are going to do
a real life battle royale
swear
down
the Hunger Games has begun
yeah
if you don't know
battle royale
and before the Hunger Games there was
a battle royale
Japanese
film really good.
The American remake is crap. Don't watch that.
But I say that because it's about
how, if that is to be true, you know, where's the world
going with violence? Like, like, and you know,
saying about this, like, violence becoming
so acceptable in today's world.
And also, like, we're fed it. You fed it all the time.
I mean, it kind of, I think it
de-sensitizes.
Totally.
It desensitizes. And we see in films all the time.
Yeah. And I see you talk about it, like, it's
violence in.
TV in cinema
I was discussed
and in politics and stuff like that
so are things like that all addressed
Yeah
Yeah they sort of all
They're all
They're all somehow mentioned
Or that we feel that they're there
Like I've been watching
dozens of horror films
Over the last couple of months
Like sort of one point
I was doing sort of one a week
Why?
Because this is because they're about tension
And threat right
The horror films are sort of
You watch them and you're like
Oh I'm waiting for the violence to happen
And I know it's going to happen
That's the expectation
exactly of a tickle that is why you have a tickle you know what because the actual
someone touching you isn't tickly it's someone going I'm going to
so it's like a psychological thing as well as a physical I like that yeah I like you
think I hate horror movies but a sound guy once told me a secret and he said that
what they do is they will remove the sound before a big jump so you know when
exactly you know when something's coming when it goes silent yeah they'll take the sound
a way to make the even bigger.
So the fact that he told me that, I just listened
and I just go down when it's quiet and I know
it's coming. I'm just going to stay
out here. I've been warned by the
and you might even wait.
You might know that the jump's coming and you just sort of
hide away and then it doesn't come and then you
open your eyes again and then ten seconds later then it
brilliant.
So did you come
from an acting background or are you always a director or like?
Yeah, I definitely didn't come from an acting background.
I definitely can't do that.
I've been directing for the last few years, really.
How did you get, just going, oh, I was like a work-al-life?
Yeah, exactly.
I think it was actually when I was at school, I first had the idea.
And then when I went to uni, I auditioned for something.
And everyone else in the room was just so good at acting.
And I was like, well, I'm shit at this.
So I'll tell them what to do instead.
That sounds all right.
Well, I think I'm still working it out.
I haven't realised that shit I am.
I'm joking.
But no, that's so cool.
Do you ever think that as a director
You should be able to experience acting
Right? Because so you know how your actors feel
I think some directors who have acted
They have a different way to directors who's just directed
Yeah
Do you know what I mean?
Yeah, totally
I work with a company called Barrel organ as well
And we made a show a couple of years ago called Nothing
Yeah
And in that I perform
But I feel like I'm not really acting in that
I'm sort of working as like someone
Who's just saying lines to an audience
and but that's a really helpful thing
because we have to negotiate those things
with an audience and so you better understand how
to ask an actor to make certain choices
if you've as you say
had to be on the receiving end of those things yourself
under the thought light
it's very testing and
yeah it's hard
their actors are just extraordinary people
and it's
well thank you
you're full of compliment
sight now
no one I do
I like you you can come again
I think yeah
it's crazy how the different
spectrum of directors. I think they're crazy.
You can get one that will cut. You could get the same script and you get two directors
probably doing the same play in the same space and you'd have two completely
different. That's how different.
It's so true. With the same actors and everything and you'd have two completely different
things. Absolutely. So true. And it feels odd because if everything you do
is a choice. So for example, this play when written wasn't necessarily two women.
But we sort of decided, you know, there's something there feels an interesting story to tell
there because they're just called the characters
are called one and two
and as you say that every choice that you made
yeah the characters called one and two
serious yeah
well 11 was taken by changing things
exactly can't go that high so
and then you have to miss out you know
you have to go straight to 12
nuts yeah so they're called 12
they're called 12 yeah together
that's their celebrity
their celebrity name
the celebrity relationship name
I quite like having numbers for names I used to
I don't know how I feel about that on my CV
I played number one
Yeah and I play number two
Listen to what you said
No no no no you want to be number one right
Yeah
Number two you have something to complain about
Yeah
I mean unless you're R2D2
But at least that's got some letters in there
Yeah true
I had a friend who we used to
Instead of discussing his exes
We didn't call them by name
We just called them by the amount of years
They were together
So I was like oh you saw six
Oh how's four
Yeah like
What would be good as if they were numbered
By the exes that you had sort of previous
So the first boyfriend
was number one, second one was number two
and then it goes and then you're like, you know how high it is
that it's like, oh yeah, how's 25?
25. 25's good.
Oh, you're just bump to the 53.
You're just be there like, oh my goodness.
You're only 22.
How did you get less money?
Oh, mate, that's crazy.
But yeah, no, the number game.
That's crazy.
We've all played the number game.
What's your number?
Don't know.
Oh, numbers.
There aren't enough numbers in the world.
Okay, so, me.
Living on Swin.
Brilliant.
So just to rehash for anyone's joined us,
we're talking about big guns.
Big guns.
Not the actual guns,
the play,
which is going to be on
at the Yard Theatre in Hackney.
And we're in with the director.
We're in with the director,
the bad man himself,
all right?
He's been watching lots of horror films.
Lots of horror films.
Yeah.
And do you have any sort of plans
after, I don't know at the moment
you haven't even started this one,
but have you got any sort of goals for 2017?
Kill Donald Trump when he comes to.
of the UK. I can't say that one now.
You can't have you
fucking kill him.
He's going to get egged, didn't he?
Oh God, more than he. I hope he gets egged.
I'm doing a show with
Barrel organ actually. We're doing one that
later in the year that we don't quite know where it's
going to be or when it's going to be yet, but we're
working on it at the moment. But we're going to do something.
We think at the moment it's called anyone's guess
how we got here. And
it's sort of about debt and childhood
and nostalgia.
Everyone can relate. Yeah, exactly.
More depressing things.
Yeah, it sounds cheery, man.
Yeah, exactly.
Don't respond to the world.
We're going to pop to some music
and then maybe we're going to play
a little game afterwards just to end on a
high. So I'm going to pop to a little
song. I'm going to go for
because today I'm picking music
majority that has been in
an unsuspecting
dance sequence in a movie.
So I've heard. I'm going to go for the
mask and this is Cuban people.
I love that film.
So now...
That movie is absolutely amazing.
The mask.
I love Jim Carrey.
Well, I don't love him now personally because of what's gone on recently,
but I love his old movie.
I liked him in the night.
What?
What's happened?
What happened?
Oh my gosh, so his ex-girlfriend committed suicide.
And she wrote in the letter,
it was because he had given her a lot of STIs on purpose.
He knew that he had, like, hepatitis and all this sort of stuff.
Shut.
He cheated on it.
He gave it to her, and she obviously was a bit fragile,
and she committed suicide and put it on the letter to his fault.
I was like, what, a bit of a nasty move?
What?
Don't give your girlfriend's SDIs.
Come on, Jim, Kerry!
Okay, that's it.
Childhood ruined.
That's it, now.
You like someone and you hear something bad.
The Grinch, dumb and dumber.
You know what I mean?
Now, I just hope that, what's it, the chuckle brother.
I hope they're not pedos
I didn't want to say it
I didn't want to say it
I just hope I was going to say I hope they don't play the fiddle
But okay
Right we're going to play a little game quickly
Well I've still got down on air
So we're going to play guess that
soundtrack so as long as the technology keeps up with me
I'm going to be playing you little clips
From movies and each of you
Just make up a buzzer
You choose yours first
Okay
Commit to that
That's that's that's a
That's it.
I've got to beat that.
No, that's easy.
So it can be anything.
Brilliant.
So if anyone thinks they know it, just do your buzzers.
Okay.
And I'll score which ones.
Okay, so coming up.
Listen, this and night and having such a good time.
Udu Lolly, golly, what a day.
Yeah.
Is that like Song of the South?

This is Back Row and Chill.
Back Row and Chill
with Johanna James

on Subbar Radio.
You're back with Backrow and Chill.
Johanna James.
And Teage.
Teage World.
Chege World.
The link for Noel Clark today.
Right, so, well, that was amazing.
We've had a lot of sespians
in the studio today.
A lot of, a lot of thespians.
Yes.
We had a lot of spespians.
I'm looking at you like,
Why?
Well, not a theatre.
I call theatre actors Thespion.
I like it.
I like it.
Yeah, I do love that.
You're very wordy today, Johanna.
I like it.
I have been reading.
I've been reading a bit.
Loaring to be ABCs.
Finally got your head out of a Now magazine.
Finally.
Just like off the book of face and finally read something valuable.
Right, we have our next guest on the line.
So if technology lets us speak to him, we've got Connor McNeil,
who's starring in the film The Party
and he is BAFTA nominated.
Let's see if Connor is there.
He is here, yeah.
We can hear you. Brilliant.
Hello, Connor.
Hello, hello.
And congratulations.
Thank you so much.
Thanks, William.
A BAFTA nomination.
So you're going to be there on Sunday, are you?
Yes, I am indeed, yeah.
And have you ever been before to the BAFTA?
No, first time.
Bafter Virgin.
First time.
Nervous.
excited at the same time.
Oh my gosh.
What are you going to wear a shorts or a suit?
Short, I killed maybe.
I don't know.
I'm wearing like a nice,
a nice, copper black suit.
Oh, wait.
Did you get given one?
Yeah.
Someone gave you one.
That's what it's all about.
You have to give it back, though, don't know.
I think so.
That's not fair.
It's a rental.
It's all right.
Don't worry about it.
Get as much pictures for the gram as you can.
Exactly.
Okay.
Exactly.
So, you're starring in the film,
the party.
Is this the film that's been...
Oh no, it's the short film that's been nominated.
I'm not starring in that I wrote it.
Oh, you wrote it?
I'm an actor as well, but I wrote
the party. Ah, you straddle both sides.
I see. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I like that.
All right. So, are you nominated
as an actor or as a writer?
The film's nominated as a whole, like...
As a whole thing.
I've got the whole... Wow.
And what's it about the party? I'm assuming
a party. Yeah, it is about a party.
It's about a party in 1970s, Belfast.
where a young man's on the run
and he brings back
sort of,
he comes back from being on the run
to party with his family
and it ends not so
fantastically.
And why the 70s?
That's a cool era.
Why the 70s?
Because I think we have an image
of what Northern Ireland was in the 70s
and about what the conflict there was like
and we have a sort of, you know,
big scary men and balaclavas
and actually the reality of it is you've got
an incredible amount of the young people
were involved in that period of time
and so I wanted to write something that was like
skins but set against the backdrop of the conflict
because that's how young people were living like that.
Oh, I love that.
70 skins.
Are you...
Where can we
see this film, huh?
So Curzon Online are doing all the BAFTA shorts
they're screening them all at the minute
so you can catch them on Curzon Online
so like...
Ah, Carson, good...
And they're doing a few...
I can't remember what cinema is off the top of my head,
but they are doing a test in a matured at the minute as well.
Yeah, probably...
Yeah, probably the main...
Checking out the main cursons in...
Oh, there's a new Curzonon in East, in East London.
No.
In old gates just opened.
And then there's obviously Shaftsbury Avenue, the main one.
Yeah.
East London's my neck of the woods.
Do you come to London much?
I live in London, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You do live in London.
I'm an East Londoner, essentially.
I've been in East Londoner for, like, about four or five years now.
Woohoo!
Oh, wow!
I live in East London.
Let's be friends, dude.
Write more small
After film
Yes
And so how did you get
Did you write and then act
Or did you act so much
That you wanted to write your own stuff
Yeah I've been acting for a very long time
I'm like since I was 14 maybe
And then I just had a story to tell
So I wrote it I wanted to
And with the party
A friend of mine to producer
She wanted to work with me
We just sort of knocked about a few ideas
And the party was the one that came out of it
And then here we're a year and a half
later, maybe two years later, we're here.
Wow, I mean, it does take that amount of time, doesn't it,
from writing to production?
And how did you get funding and find funding?
Because I find that's also really hard.
So there are some amazing ideas and stories to be told,
but it's really hard to get through.
It is, it really is.
And we were kind of incredibly lucky with ours
because the Irish Film Board had an incredible initiative
that was to commemorate the independence of Ireland.
and we went through that scheme
so they were looking really unique stories
that identified the island as a whole, you know?
So they, we just got really lucky.
We entered into it.
It was kind of like a lottery, to be honest.
Yeah.
They gave us the money, so it was pure potluck,
but it is a difficult,
like I have lots of mates trying to make sure
to say it's a hard thing,
and I think a lot of the time
you have to kind of do it off your own back
and get out there and just beg borrow and stay.
Begmore and stuff like that, you know?
And end up at the Bafters.
I mean, this is like a little mini story in itself.
You can make another movie
about the making of the party.
and then where it goes.
So is this story staying as a short
or like a lot of shorts
then get sort of they get written
as a taster of an expansion that could be made?
So could the party be extended?
It could be.
And it was never a massive plan at the beginning
but it's starting to maybe become more of an idea
that's growing slightly more
because there is a huge scope.
I mean, I think one of you said
both sides of the story is really interesting.
In the beginning, what happened before
but also what happens after.
So it's about finding what that story is,
I suppose,
but there's definitely room for maybe
doing that, but nothing immediate at the minute.
I love period.
Well, yeah, I guess it's still cool period drama
if it's not modern.
I absolutely love it.
Anything in the sort of,
because even if you only knock back
to the 80s or something,
it is still so different.
Just like politically or...
It's so cool as well.
Like even just like we had the faint,
and it was quite difficult for Andrea, the director,
she had to find a street that didn't have
satellite dishes that didn't have, you know,
like, sort of modern.
An original, yeah.
But they made it look incredible.
And the costumes and the soundtrack,
everything was so cool.
It was good fun from that side of things.
Oh, amazing.
Was it hard to, um, was it hard?
Like, do you do in, like, you have exterior shots, right?
Yeah.
Or is it all shot indoors?
Is it absolutely?
There's a good idea.
So is it hard, was it hard to, um,
make the outdoors look 70s, you know?
Yeah, big time.
Big time.
Because everyone has a sky dish.
You know, everyone had like a different thing.
It was, it was finding we managed to find this street that just worked.
It was but it was our locations person just doing an amazing job.
But then one day we were filming and there was a house having a full blown rave going on.
Played proper, like, heavy techno music.
And we're supposed to be shooting a thing in the 70s.
But excuse me, could you possibly play some queen or something?
Yeah, exactly.
Oh gosh, that's crazy.
And what about, like, cars going by?
like you see like a like a what's it called a hybrid car going
yeah yeah exactly a smart car just rolling
a smart car rolling through like oh amazing
well this sounds really exciting so people can go and they can check out
cars on and they can be watching obviously they'll be watching the bafters
um brilliant and you're gonna be there have so much fun that sounds so exciting
dude are you gonna be writing any more films now you now you've done this
do you think this would be like a gateway into writing like a full length feature film
Yeah, exactly. I have another feature of sort of modern days.
Modern day that's in development at the minute.
Hopefully we'll be shooting later in the year.
Perfect.
Oh, so you've got one lined up?
Nearly there, yeah.
Congratulations.
Go, dude.
Go you, Connor.
And if anyone wants to check out your socials and stuff, where would they find you?
I'm on Connor McNeilio, just my name and an I-O at the end on Twitter.
Connor McNeilio.
Oh, well, thanks so much for talking with us and have all the best.
Cross?
Conall,
Thank you so much.
We're going to go for a beer to celebrate
since we're both living in East London.
How about that?
Indeed.
Definitely, let's do it.
Sweet.
Congratulations, buddy.
Oh, wait.
Bye, Connor, thank you.
Wow, he's off to the BAFTA.
I can't believe
the BAFTAs are already.
I can't believe they're ready.
And we had, who did we have,
what's his name again?
We headed the,
the head of the BAFTA film committee.
Come in and,
I'm trying to look for his name.
Anyway, he promised us a ticket.
Maybe she should just roll up
I'm just gonna roll up
I'll be like yo
Yeah we know the BAFTA guy
Yeah
You what I mean
Jim Bradshaw that was his name
Tim
Jim Bradshaw that's it
Jim Bradshaw
I mean
Dude I want my
I want my ticket
Otherwise me and Johanna
Are gonna come there
And gate crash yet
Get Crash yet
We're gonna roll up
Like Kanye West did
At the
The Finger Awards
Yeah
When he had all the hoodlums
Come on
He wasn't invited
No no no
No, no, no, Kainé West, he did that show,
and then he had all the people dressed in black,
all the UK rappers just come on and whatever.
So I'm going to roll through like that.
We're going to just have a big squad of people dressed in black.
Let's find matching suits and let's do it.
Probably ninja suits.
Right.
Let's wear ninja suits.
So, the song that I've next chosen is from the 70s.
Is it?
Whoa!
I like how you linked it.
Right, this is Queen.
We will rock you also appearing in the film A Night's Tales.
Backroom and Chill, we've got Lucy Patterson coming on,
and we're going to give you the most up-to-date
film reviews that we possibly can
right next.
Oh, it's finished.
Okay.
Well, that was one of my favorite
Queen's songs ever or so.
Good choice.
Lucy Patterson's back in the studio.
We've got a film review section.
I'm going to be talking all things, Phil.
What's coming up?
What's coming out?
Yeah.
Oh, brilliant.
Okay.
What have we been seeing and reviewing?
And what's good?
What's the word on the street?
Right.
The down low.
Well, I'd like to say,
say, like, last year
was a good year for kids' films.
So, and we were talking
Disney films earlier in our game
and stuff like that. So, I'm going to give
you my rundown of
the greatest kids' films that I think
that came out. And a lot of them aren't
just for kids, there's some of these for adults, I think.
You've found a lot of them are funny. Yeah.
There's adult humour in it. I love an animation.
Yeah. Animation. Definitely.
So, um,
obviously, there was fantastic beat,
fantastic beast and where to find them.
Absolutely brilliant.
Yeah.
We also had Angry Birds.
If you haven't seen Angry Birds, go on and see Angry Birds.
It's not even because there's an adult film.
And also, the soundtrack's amazing.
It's so funny.
It's good.
That film is bad.
If you're like the game, you'll absolutely love it.
And even if you don't, it is so bloody funny that film.
Yeah.
The life and the character, you believe them.
Totally.
I know.
So that's a great one.
Storks wasn't too bad as well.
I've found Stokes hilarious.
Yeah.
I'm stupid.
I'm amazing.
I want to watch Storks, but I haven't.
Is it out yet?
Yeah, it's been out.
Go on, done.
No, I mean, like, is it all out of DVD?
I think it's coming on Sky soon, so DVD's probably imminent.
Yeah, because I can't, I can't, I have the only version, like,
because I missed the cinema and I can't find a really bad download version.
I was like, nope, not doing that.
No, no, don't do that.
We don't download films, guys, we don't do that.
We don't do that.
All right, also, um, Cubo.
What's that?
Is that the two strings thing?
Yeah, basically, it's like a, it looks like a stop motion animation, yeah.
It's like based on like Chinese
I think it's Chinese monophology
Yeah
No it's not anime
It's actually just said stop motion as well
Sorry
Yeah
So it's really good
It's really good
It's very stylised
The style of it is really good
It's like about
You know
Far East mythology and stuff like that
But it's a really lovely film
It's sad but really interesting
And it's artistically beautiful
I'm not really seeing any animation
It's called C-B-O
C-U-B-O
So go and see that
Obviously Miss Peregrine's home for peculiar children
I didn't actually see that
I saw it twice because I saw it
I reviewed it and then I took my little sister who wanted to see it
It was good, it was good
I really enjoyed it
It was really quirky
Yeah it was quirky
I struggled to follow it
Well it's time travel to eat you would have problems
So I was like
I don't know but I like
it as well.
It was...
I understood it more the second time I watched it
because it's very weird and it's all about time travel
and these...
These children, really weird children,
they live in 1940,
or two.
And they're stuck in a loop.
And they're stuck in a time loop.
So they live the same day over and over and over and over again
because a bomb from the wall
was going to drop on their children's time.
So in order to save them,
they can live in a time loop.
And they watch, they get to all go outside
and they watch the bomb drop and then the time loop stops
and it goes back and then they start the day again.
So they do the same date again and again and again and again,
groundhog date until this boy turns up in 1942.
Yes, and everything changes everything.
It's so good.
I say go and see that, yeah.
So they're my recommendations for kids' film because, yeah, it was absolutely brilliant.
And also check out Mona.
Mona's good.
I've not seen that yet.
People want hit and miss with it.
What's Mona?
The vampire?
No.
I remember.
I know.
It's not Mona.
Moana, sorry.
Oh, Moana.
Moana, sorry.
Marana, sorry.
It's like,
it's kind of like a New Zealand,
Maui,
kind of based on that,
the new Disney installment,
Maui.
The Rock,
Dwayne Johnson.
Yes, I think, yeah,
he's involved in producing
or something like that as well.
Supposedly, he was heavily involved in that.
It's a really good film.
People are hit and miss.
They're saying it's not traditional,
but it's fun.
But then they've got to go, you know,
away from tradition at some point,
or they're making the same story.
over and over again and again frozen 50
9. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
And they're saying that, you know, like the mythology
isn't bang right, you know, but it's
a cotton, it's not meant to be...
It doesn't really matter, you know what I mean, it's fun.
Yeah, the historical...
The historical accuracy on most Disney movies
is not right.
Exactly, exactly.
It's a story.
It is fun, so do go check that out, but I highly
recommend angry, but do go and see that.
If you're feeling miserable, go and watch that.
So that's my review for kids' films, okay?
Cool.
Lucy, what have you been seeing?
Well, as you said before on the show, I tend to find somebody that catches my eye and then stalk them all the way back through their filmography and things like that.
So my latest stalky was, yeah, totally.
My lady stalky was George Webster.
Okay.
You may have seen him in Versailles, and my name is Emily, tripped, that little mini-series that was on E4.
What's his name?
George Webster.
I've seen Versailles.
Who do you play in Versailles?
William of Orange, I think.
Oh, okay.
He, in 2013, made a film called Further Ed.
He wrote, directed it, looks like
he got his friends to star and it's him,
David Fricker and Sophie Reed.
It's about two university students
who, to make some money,
decided to make their own LSD,
in a bathtub.
Now, that alone, I was like,
this sounds amazing.
And I found it on Amazon Instant Video.
Yeah.
Because I'm a prime member,
I watched it for free.
It's only 90 minutes long,
and it is every bit as ridiculous as it sounds.
And you can tell that it was made
for about a fibre,
but that is why it's so charming.
And it's so funny.
You know, it's like British humour at its best.
There's sea bombs dropped everywhere.
There's, you know, full-frontal nudity and there's sex jokes and this, that and the other, you know.
And it's just a real charming film and hilariously laugh out loud, funny.
A bit of animation going on in there as well.
And it's bravo to him for getting it made.
I mean, yeah, he made it in 2013.
And it's now 2017.
But, you know, people find it on Amazon and watch it.
It's really, really funny.
A lot of people say, oh, you know, it's laugh out loud, funny,
when really I'm sure they probably didn't laugh at all.
But this one, I was actually cracking up on my own in the living room.
What was the name of it again?
Further Ed, it's called.
Further Ed.
Yeah, it's another end.
Further Ed.
Further Ed.
It's very good.
I can't find George, sorry.
I found curious George.
I can't find that.
I'm trying to get your face.
George Webster.
George Webster.
I, this week, I started to, I was like,
let me check out the Netflix scope.
And I started watching Santa Clarita.
Me too.
And it's very weird because I saw the adverts and I was like,
what in the world is this?
Is this woman who's like all this blood and she's eating body parts?
I was like, this does not look.
Okay, let me check this out.
I need to have an opinion on this.
But I found myself really enjoying it.
And I wanted to watch the next one.
And the next one, the next one and I watched the entire series.
Did you?
I only got up to five because I fell asleep.
But the, well, they are very small.
They're only 25 minutes per episode.
So it's really easy to like just like get through.
but basically the premise is
it's just so wacky
it's like this woman
who with her husband
and she's got a teenage daughter
she is a realtor
and she's showing the people
around this beautiful house
and she suddenly starts vomiting up
her entire guts over the whole house
like you've never seen
like so much of vomit
and then she dies
and then she instantaneously comes back
and she's an undead
but she's not an undead zombie
as in the movies where they're like
she still looks the same
which doesn't quite act
the same because she's she like lives really impulsively like she loves life um and but the only
problem is is that she now can't eat food and she she has to eat uh raw meat and humans so
so her husband and her teenage daughter decide they're going to help her in killing people so they
can keep feeding her while they're looking for a cure it's that it's that wacky that's why i love it
that much it's so wacky but they take it with serious and do you know what the best thing is it a
comedy or horror. Yeah, it's total comedy.
It's total comedy. And the best thing
about it, I think, is the guy
who plays the husband. I love him. I think he, I don't
know, I haven't seen him anything before, but I recognise
and he is
brilliant, and Drew Barrymore plays the main woman,
and she holds her own. Oh, she's the
undead woman. She's the undead. Oh, yeah,
I like a bit of Drew Barrymore,
I do, I do. Yeah, and so she plays the mum
and, um, zombie mum,
and I just
love it, I think it was so wacky, and I thought
this, on a script, I imagine,
this script would have been turned down a thousand times
because it's just like she vomits over
the room and then she soles off the neighbour's leg and then
she eats his fingers and blah
blah blah yeah she eats them like finger snacks
literal finger snacks
but it's so kooky
and yet it's like modern and the
references and stuff is it's really
really fast-paste and it's so bright
and colourful and lovely like I seen like
suburbia and all the sunshine and everything
and she's just eating people it's like
it's so eclectic and weird
I just love it it was just profound
I need to see this.
It's comedy.
It's just like a roll-on-roll comedy.
So Santa Clarita Diet on Netflix.
It's a Netflix original.
So if you've got Netflix, it's just, it should be, they're really pushing it at the moment.
That's why I saw it.
I saw loads of adverts for it.
But I really recommend it because it was just really weird.
I'm going to go and watch that, you know.
Yeah, Santa Claus.
Just get through the, we don't even have to get through the first episode.
Like the OA, I found that on Netflix, you had to really get through the first episode.
I didn't.
I didn't make it through it.
I know.
Exactly.
You fell at the first post, mate.
Oh, it's just one of the loveliest things
ever the I-A.
I love the OA.
But Santa Cruz to die.
I'm sad that I whizzed through the whole...
Is it a series?
It's a series, yeah.
It's a series, yeah.
10, 25 minutes.
I think, I hope that there better be a second.
Although they left.
I've got to be.
I'm down for it.
And is Drew Barrymore really good?
She's not failed.
But she's good, but she's, she's already got her comedy, like, bad.
She can do that.
And she kind of, she does...
It was almost like it was written probably for her.
Probably.
Because she, it's just,
Drew Barrio doing her thing.
Yeah.
Being like super quirky and wet,
but she kind of steps it up
a little bit in this one
because she's never been allowed
to properly swear as much.
No, she hasn't actually that, yeah.
Yeah, she's been,
it had to be sort of PC'd on it,
so now she can just totally
effing jeff.
Yeah, she can effing death.
Yeah, so was anything else that you...
I went to saw rings yesterday.
Oh, the horror.
Yeah.
I mean, like I said before,
remakes and things are just a bit boring now,
but this wasn't really a remake.
It was just sort of rehashy.
the story and also giving us a bit more detail into the background.
Obviously, the ring, which was the remake of the original Korean, Japanese film or whatever,
you watch a videotape and then seven days later, you die apparently.
You get a phone call after you've watched it saying seven days and you die after that.
So what they wanted to know was obviously the story behind it.
So they fleshed it out this time.
And, you know, it wasn't particularly scary.
or particularly gory or anything
but it was a beautifully shot film
there was a lot of close camera and a lot of dolly
work and you know it was really really good
in that sense I would go to the cinema to see it
because it was beautiful to watch
but if you're a true horror fan
and you want something to scare you I wouldn't bother
yeah it's not that horary
no it's not that horror and if you've seen one ring film
you've seen them also I didn't even know they were more than one
yeah because there's the ring
there's ring the first Japanese one
then there's the ring then there's the ring
then there's the ring too
yeah that's all speaking
I get confused from that
and I always get confused between the girl in there
and the girl from the grudge.
Me too.
Because they're all just the kind of...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They're both basically the same person.
But I do remember finding out
that the girl from the original ring,
the actress,
was she was playing young,
but she was actually like 20.
Creepy.
Because they couldn't find an actress
to do the role.
Yeah.
I don't actually quite agree with
when they get really young girls
to play like these kind of like horrid.
I think it's a bit like...
It's fucking up in the hit.
Yeah.
You don't know what it's going to do.
I think it's just not the, let's pretend that you've got a devil inside you, Susie.
So they get, when they can, they can cast older.
So the girl in it, she looks like super, super young.
But then if you see her in real life, she's like, she was like 22 or something.
You can correct me on that, people, if that's wrong fact.
You can, like, call in or email in and correct me.
But I just remember being surprised how old she was.
It's like the girl from the orphan.
Do you remember that horror?
Oh, that was what popped in my head as soon as Johanna said that.
That is good.
She was good.
That was crazy.
Was she a woman or was she a girl?
know. I don't know. I'm thinking probably she was a teenager.
Do you ever? She must have been. For her to be able to
portray that so
creepily and so well, I hope she was older.
Otherwise that is one demonic child.
That movie was good as horror movies go. Well, on the theme of horror movies
split. Anyone seen it yet? Yes, I've seen it.
I've seen it now. Oh, you went to see it?
It's not as scary as I thought it may be.
I don't know.
I don't really think you can think a bit of a horror.
It's not a horror film.
It's a psychological thriller, in it?
And also, I don't know,
I felt that split was a bit of a bioproduct.
Of?
Of these girls being trapped.
The film could have been called trapped.
It could have.
You're absolutely right.
You know what I mean?
You are absolutely right.
Do you know, it weren't enough.
I don't know it was enough about,
and I know you do get to see a lot of him,
but not enough.
I don't know.
He wanted more about the psychology of his sister.
I don't know if...
I thought it could have been...
But I like that he played all the different characters.
I didn't get to see 24 characters.
I'd disappointed.
You only get to see...
About seven?
Yeah, you see about seven characters.
And then the rest are just on a computer screen.
Right?
And she clicks through them.
But she don't click through all of them.
So that piss...
Yeah, that's right.
Anyway, he acted good.
He did a good job, yeah.
Good job.
but not scary enough and I wanted more.
I think I had to, maybe my expectations were set too, right?
Maybe. Maybe you thought it was going to horror, but I didn't go in, well, I'm seeing it,
but I wasn't going to go in thinking it was horror because I don't do horrors.
I was, I did a horror accidentally last year.
I thought I was going to see Suicide Squad and I was actually going to see the cundering two.
Oh my God, that's so fucking scary that film.
I know.
Is it?
I was pranked by the wall of comedy.
That's not funny.
I know, they told me I was going to a screening of suicide squads.
I got so excited and I went down.
Oh, those horrible boys.
And then I thought, I sat down and I went,
why is there a camera?
I'm watching the audience.
I was like, this is weird.
And then it started and I was like,
this doesn't look like suicide squad.
And then, oh my God.
That is a naughty thing.
That's brilliant.
And then, yeah, the results.
Did they film it?
Yeah, and the results of me screaming my head off went on Facebook.
Yes, I'm going to go watch that.
All of comedy for conjuring 2.
Brilliant.
Oh, that's so, yeah.
Right, so there's some stuff that's coming out this year.
Like, this year I was looking up the lineup of the films that are coming out,
and I'm so excited.
Good stuff.
So, obviously, Blade Runner.
I know.
I'm really intrigued about what it's going to happen.
It's like, it's got Ryan Gosling and Harrison Ford.
What is with this Ryan Gosling?
Why is it so popular at Lama?
You have to be a girl to fully appreciate it.
I don't get it.
You need to be female to understand me.
He's not that pretty.
I don't know.
I don't get the appeal.
He's just got a coolness to him.
He's in drive.
I think once you've seen that film,
it goes to another level.
If you think he's pretty anyway,
watch that and it's like, oh.
It's like the Michael Blumee-Bublier effect.
Yeah, I don't get him.
You're not a bubbly fan?
No.
A bubbly fan.
So Blade Runner's coming out.
And weirdly, I auditioned for,
not a character of Blade Runner.
I auditioned for what I was assumed
going to be a
standing or a robot or something
because I remember like two years ago
I went to this audition
and I had to walk like a robot
and they filmed every single part of my body
because they were trying to find
a body match for someone
or there was a particular costume
or you had to look like a particular thing
anyway obviously I didn't
act well enough as a robot
you weren't stiff enough
I know that was a really hard thing for me
because I was so animated
so for me to be still
and they were just like doing all this stuff
I was just like,
I'm moving my eyebrows.
But I was really intrigued
and it's also got
the actress from House of Cards
Robin Wright.
Robin Wright,
or Robin Wright,
what she is.
The main lady from House of Cards
and I'm really excited to see what she is in that.
So Blade Runner is in my like,
oh my God.
Beauty and the Beast is coming out
next month.
I'm really excited for that.
I don't know how I feel about that.
Well, I'm excited.
Well, I'm excited to see
what's going on.
Yeah, so it's a,
Was it a film,
in it?
The live action, the live action remake.
Pirates of the Caribbean.
Yeah, I've seen the trailer.
They just dropped the trailer.
Really? I haven't watched the trailer yet.
And it did get me a bit excited actually.
I was buzzing when I watched that.
My initial fault is, can you stop it now?
No, not this one.
I'll watch the trailer.
See, this one, because I think they went off with the last one.
This one has got Johnny Depp.
It's got Orlando Blue back.
Yeah.
It's got Kira Nile.
The original...
That's what I'm saying.
It's back.
Because I love the original Pirates of Caribbean.
I think I saw that film three times in the cinema when it came out.
This feeling looks wicked.
I was so excited.
I can't.
Right. So that's what's coming out.
And also I saw a thing of...
I haven't even seen the trailer, but I just saw a poster for The Mummy and Tom Cruise.
So I don't know what that is.
That's another one.
I don't know how I feel about that.
But it's coming out.
The Mummy, another one.
No, la.
Right.
So, I hope everyone has a great weekend.
We're coming into land.
Tonight, me and Lucy, we're off to go and see.
