And I'm going to start off today with one of my favorite movie soundtrack songs of the week. It was the opening song in Guardians of the Galaxy 2. So if you've seen it, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about.

This was probably one of the best openings to a movie I've ever ever seen. So we're going to get straight in there with Mr. Blue Sky by Electric Light Orchestra. This is Back Row and Chill. I think that song wins an award for like the long. longest finale. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It goes on. What they call it?

Deschendo. I know you got crescendo when it goes up, and what do you call it when it builds down? I don't know. An enchendo. An enchendo. If you know, let us know. Tweet us.

Tweet us. That sounds like a new Justin Bieber song. What, Enchendo? Yeah. Justin Bieber's getting all Spanish on his latest single. Is it? I know he's got that one with the DJ Callie. DJ Callie does love his son.

They love it. He loves his son. They've got that one with DJ Call. Lots of people. Lots of people. and stuff like that on that tune and Little Wayne and all those people and his son produces the video

like he plays the director which is really cute but Justin Bieber I'm slightly a fan you know I'm becoming a believer Can you imagine and also who's the other one from um what's the boys group now what's they called again

oh Harry Stiles Harry Stiles yeah that's trying to see his face but he's got all like Rocky and stuff I'm slightly a fan but don't tell no one though keep it between us Keep on down on and everyone listening.

Right, it's Back Crow and Chill. It's Johanna James, and I'm joined today by... Teage World. How you doing, people? Awesome. And we're going to be chatting to you a little bit about what's going on in the world of movies, entertainment, TV, a little bit of social media as well. Nice. And we want you guys to get involved. So if you want to email in anything to us, it's Chill at Fulbarredio.com. We will shout you out. Let us know what kind of movies you're into, what you're looking at at the moment, what you find shit as well. just, you know, spread by word of mouth, warn us, so we don't waste our time or money

on watching a crap movie, because I hate that when you spend like 10, 15 quid to go to cinema, and then the movie's shite. Yeah, I miss that Orange Wednesdays and stuff like that. Do you know, like, we used to get the discount tickets and stuff on Wednesday, but there are other ways around it. Maybe we could have a little look and see how you can get

some cheapest options and stuff like that. Well, I know if you're in London, the cheapest cinema that I found is the Peckhamplex, the Multiplex in Peckham. It's 4.9. for everyone all day. Every day? Yeah, every day, all time.

I know, I know. You can do a cinema date for under a tenor. Swear that. I love a cheap date. I think, I know that the Genesis cinema in Mylan, I think it's on Tuesday or Wednesday, has a cheap cinema day as well. And they've also got this thing called Studio 5 as well, where you get a little sofa, yeah, and you get a footrest, so you can kick off your jacket, put it in a footrest,

you get a blanket, can get alcohol, just a little love seat, you know, the two-seater-a- That's a baby-making cinema. You know, really? You all me is going to go down in the cinema. For sure. What do you call that down in the CM? That could be a new tune maybe? That could be the spin-off show, though.

Right, so something weird's happening today. Obviously, yesterday it was May the 4th. You may the 4th be with you. Exactly. And today, on Twitter, the trending hashtag is hashtag superhero day. Okay. So people are talking about superheroes, which is kind of relevant because both of us just went to see Guardians of the Galaxy 2. Yeah.

awesome film. We'll be talking about that later, right? Yeah, we're going to be reviewing that later because that was so good. And so I'm having a little look on the tweets here about what hashtag superhero day is all about. And we've got someone here, worst superhero ever, and it's a photo of a barrier man. So those people

that hold the barriers at festivals and stuff. I've got to have respect to them, though. That's a lot of crowd control. I like it. I like it. I reckon if I was a superhero, road. My power would be

I would like to maybe teleport. I think teleport to places or time travel. So, okay, teleport, that's the lazy man's option. Just saying. But I don't want to fly. I don't like heights. Imagine flying across the Atlantic Ocean.

I'm going to be bricking it all the way across the sea. Like, I'm not, and I hit a storm as well and I get electrocuted. I'm not about that laugh. Can you imagine if your superpower was you could fly but you were afraid of heights? Exactly. You would suck.

Suck. That's what I'm saying. And imagine like you've got a fly. Say it's going to take. take me eight hours to get somewhere. If I could telepool, I can just be like, boom, boom, I'm there. Done.

You know what I'm saying? Okay, I see what I'm saying. But if I could time travel as well, I'd like to go forward and back, not just backwards. I'll be too scared. But back would be good because I'll be living it up, boy, I'll be mad rich.

Everyone now I know will be rich. Trust me. I was like, how far back do you want to go, though? I don't know, just back to like the last lottery lot of thing, in it? Oh, okay. So each week I do a friend. So basically fraud?

You want to use time travel for fraud? Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, all it down. saving the world, killing Hitler, all of those ones, no. Yeah, yeah, but you know what? I wouldn't want to, you know, the butterfly effect and that. I'm not trying to do too much, in it, you know? You know, shit happens and then you die, in it, yeah? So, like, I'm just out here for me and my bedrooms, in it?

I'm joking, I'm joking. I probably would do something good, but I'd give money to people and so on and so forth. But I don't know about killing anybody, like, because, I don't know, shit happens for a reason, I guess. Shit happens for a reason. Yeah. Quote, quote from Teage World. Hashtag Tige World.

So, you guys out there, let us know, what is the, what's probably, like, the worst superhero power that you guys would do. Let us on the Twitter. Tweet us at Food Bar Radio. What would be the worst one? So I think maybe flying if you're afraid of heights, that would be pretty shit.

Or maybe just something like if you were invisible but only in the dark. Invisible but only in the dark. What a shit. I'm invisible but only in the dark. See? Nah, mate. I can't see.

That's brilliant. That's brilliant. That's brilliant. What if, yeah, you could breathe under water but you can't swim? So, okay. Yeah, you can do it, but you ain't really got the stroke and stuff like that. You're still struggling, but you can breathe around the water.

She's just sinking, yeah, and stuff like that. Because me, I can swim, but I can't tread water, so basically if I stop, I'm fucked. Wow, you just got to keep going. I want to keep going. Laping. Exactly, like, if I was in the Titanic, that woman would be straight off the flipping, you know what she?

Jack, no, get the fuck off the fucking, whatever, wooden draft, right? I need this, okay? Share the door, darling, share the door. What would your superpower be, Jana? Well, I probably, I'm thinking like superpowers would just be like a hypen, hyphen, yeah, heightened. Heightened, like, whatever you've got already. And I guess I'm quite, I'm quite emotional and intense and crazy.

So I'm just imagining that my superpower would just be like psycho powers or something. Or maybe I'd be like hyper-emotional or something. So you'd just be a really bad girlfriend, basically? Pretty much. My superpower would be being a bad girlfriend. My superpower. The worst girlfriend. Or maybe like.

Stress a girl. I'd be able to. So at the moment, I've also actually, I've almost got a superpower at the moment. I can read my boyfriend's thoughts. Pardon? I'm developing it. I can read his thoughts. Literally.

Okay. Which I don't really like because I know what he's thinking and I know when he's thinking bad things. Really? Maybe he's faces too telling or maybe we need to call the guy in the white jacket? No, no, no. Are you sure we don't need to walk you out? It's confirmed because I can look at him and I go, you'll think about this. And he goes, how do you know?

Oh my gosh. But can you read lips? Because you know, like, you're partially deaf, right? Are you good at reading lips? I can read lips. That's technically a superpower. Wow, being deaf is a superpower. Thank you, she is.

That's what I'm saying? A bit like, what's he's named? The Daredevil. He's blind, but it's a superpower. So it's not a, you know, so check it out. You've kind of got superpowers already, John. I think they should do a superhero movie about me, about being deaf, but I can, like, hear stuff and feel,

oh, yeah, I can hear people's thoughts. but I'm deaf, boom. Where's Noel? We need to write this down. Oh my God, so you can't hear, but you can hear. Oh my God, hey, I just edit the Matrix right now. Yo, pause right there. Boom.

Okay, well, maybe we should move on to films that are actually being made. Okay, so just to remind them, we need to get their worst superhero powers. Yeah, they need to let us know. Is that what we should? Yes, if you could let us know guys out there, the worst, see if you can beat my invisible but only in the dark superpower, tweet us at Fubbar Radio. And we're going to be running a poll today as well,

because it is hashtag superhero day and we're going to be running a poll on which superhero movie should they stop making. Can they just let it die? Please, for God's sake, Marvel. Right? So we're going to be doing Batman, Superman, Spider-Man or Avengers so head over to the Twitter.

We're going to be running the poll as of now. Let's know which one should we like try and hashtag to stop. Yes, we should kill it here. We should have a film for it here with a nice film song. Yeah, we'll send it off. We'll pay respects. You know, we're not like not human. but um

we'll bury it right here I'll go get a shovel in the break good done done right so I'm going to have a little bit of entertainment news now and I've got a new little entertainment news segment it's the entertainment news on back row and cheer

what do you think of that oh hello jamana wow you got like loo la la la lae is that the word a lo la la la la la da yeah I got a bit laudida da there didn't I that was quite that was quite Cool. Right, so what is coming up in the world of movies and TV? So House of Cards

creator, Bo Willemann, he is making a new TV series called The First and it is about a Mars colonisation. It's co-financed by Channel 4, so I'm hoping it's going to come out on England the same time as America. Yes. If we're putting money into it. It's going to be on Channel 4. I don't know if it's going to be money into it. I don't think we're going to go to the BBC. That's true. That's cool. But it's all about, yeah, Mars. colonization it's going to be a series and it's going to be looking at like the struggles and the dramas around living on mars a new like mars is in mars bar no mars the planet oh if you think about it not only are you going to be like living on another planet which is a bit

like moving to a new country but times a million but also the extremes of you're going to be stuck with the same whatever what 12 people 20 people for the rest they're the only other humans you are ever going to see. What if you hate them? What if you love them? What if you love and hate them? What if all the ladies like one guy or like all the guys like one guy or, you know, whatever or the girl, you know, if you're not the popular one basically. That would be lame.

It's like high school for life. Exactly. And you've got no love. Everybody needs love. Imagine that. I know. You have to like maybe you couldn't. What about would they get like a Mars Tinder in case you need to get love?

They could like ship a girlfriend or boyfriend or boyfriend up to you. It costs that millions of billions of billions. send just one person so they aren't going to like ship a Tinder day over there. Oh man. But imagine if you got like Tinder like catfished all the way to Mars. Or if they had like they found like new

what's it aliens and stuff like that and you could just like start dating different species maybe yeah that'd be cool. I mean interspecies dating I mean I would date like you know the green girl from from Guardians of Galaxy for sure the pink one the pink one who he left in in the ship date her as well

basically like all the funky coloured. Yeah, the blue one from Avatar, she could get my number quickly. Okay, ladies out there if you're listening and you've got a weird, funny, primary colour skin colour. Let you know, he's down. Hold on your boy. So a little bit more in the entertainment world. So have you heard about this about Jar Rule who was

going to set up a festival and there's now a massive lawsuit? Why? Right, so he made a festival called the Fire Festival and it was going to be on a remote island in the Caribbean or the Maldives or somewhere and it was basically going to be a celebrity festival that was going to top Coachella and it was supposed to be like VIP luxury tickets was like thousands of pounds to go and basically people bought tickets they turned up and it was like

shitter than like a festival on Margate Beach it was awful what and everyone's kicked up a fuss and apparently people were there wasn't even like enough water and like basic first aid and stuff it was so bad so now he's being sued for a hundred million pounds as if he weren't broke already I know Sorry, Jarl. What? Murder. Ouch! Oh my gosh. Did he even book Ax?

I mean, what? I don't know. He probably just had himself, himself, himself, and I? I don't know. Me, myself and I. Yeah, me, myself and I. Ashanti might have been there, but... I don't know.

I don't know. It's all gone to tits up, really. Pete Tom, mate. Sad times. Also in the news, Cheryl Cole and Liam Payne have had their baby, and did you hear what they called him? What? Just take a guess.

So he's called... No, there was already an apple. A peach. A sausage. He's called... Sonic. Bear. These people.

Which isn't that bad on its own, right? What? B-A-R-E-R-E-A-R. Like, bear is in the animal. Bear is in the animal, right? So he's called Bear. What the Fudge. Isn't bad, but then you've got to remember that his second name is Payne,

because it's Liam Payne. Because it's Bear! What have you done, darling? Oh my gosh. I thought like North West was bad, but this just got... North West and Bear Pain. Bear Pain. Apple, oh, what is going on?

Bear. But I think it'd be cool if it was B-A-R-E, you could be like, bear. No, it doesn't make any difference. No, no, that also means you're calling your kid naked, technically. Oh, yeah, and beer. That's very true, that's very true. What, bear? Are they, why?

You're clearly speechless, so I'm going to give you a little moment. I think we should jump back into loads of the tracks that we're playing today are from Guardians of the Galaxy 2, because if you haven't checked out the soundtrack, do it, it's absolutely awesome. So I think I'm going to go for Fox on the Run by the suite. This is Back Row and Chill.

Back Row and Chill with Johanna James on Fubar Radio. Hello guys. Welcome back. Welcome back. Back row and chill. It is a beautiful day for a Friday. It is. And today Johanna is joined by me, Teedroll. Hello, I'm back and I'm loving it.

And he's had his coffee. Yes. Right, we're in the middle of talking about entertainment news, but what's going on in the world, what's coming up in the world of film and TV. And I'm really excited about this. So, they have announced that there is potentially going to be four Game of

Thrones spin-off TV series. No, I'm excited. Oh my God, you don't watch Game of Thrones, do you? I'm not a Game of Thrones fan. It's wasted of me. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I want to be excited, but get out. I missed that one. Just get out. I didn't jump on the

bandwagon soon enough and now it's gone too far. And I can't jump on the train because it's totally, it's gone past, it's at the end of the line, I can't catch it. 23 million people watch Game of Friends. It is the biggest HBO series ever. Wow. You love it. There are boobs everywhere on that show. Booms and swords.

Bobs and swords. Hey, I am the breast specialist. Hey. That's your pervy. I'm joking. But what's really cool is that what they've done is HBO have commissioned four writers to go ahead. and think up like spin-off ideas.

So you've got Max Borenstein who did Kong Skull Island which is a really sick film. You got Jane Goldman who did Kingsman and think like kick-ass. Oh, oh yes.

She's the wife of Jonathan Ross which is really cool. Oh my. And she did that Star Dust as well. She did Star Dust as well. Did she did that was really good. Yeah so she's going to have word.

Love her. I love her. Brian Hedgeland who did legend with like Tom Hardy. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. And Carly. And Carly. And Carly Ray, who did Mad Men and the leftovers.

So, oh, I mean, all of them are absolutely amazing. So are they all going to work together or have their each one? Separately, separately. So they're going to all, they're all going to do separate spin-off. They must have been given a character and told, go and go and have this. Go and think of the world and the story and whatever. That's really peculiar because I wonder how they've all got different styles. They're going to, like, turn out really different.

Well, they're all going to work. They're going to work individually with the creator, George R.R. Martin. So it's going to stay completely within the story. Game of Thrones. I think he's probably going to heavily edit what they do, but still I'm so excited. I'm excited.

Maybe I can get into the spin-off then. You know, it's a chance for me to catch up and start again. I do have a couple of mates who have been in it. Who are in it. Natalie Emmanuel, she's still in it. Oh yeah, you know her, yeah. Yeah, she plays a translator or something like this. Yeah, to the Calisi.

To the Calici. She's hot. Yeah, she's a friend. She's a friend. Friend zones. Anyway. Yeah. I know some people from Game of Friends, actually.

I know Kerry Ingram, who she played the little girl with the scar on her face, who got burned. Oh, okay. I missed her. Was she in the early series? Yeah, she's not in the... Oh, you've seen it. I have seen a couple at the beginning.

Later today on the show, we've got an interview with Ellie Kengik, who is also in Game of Friends. So stay tuned for that. I'm going to anyone listening. If you didn't hear the start of the show, We're talking all about hashtag superhero day on Twitter. So we want you to get in touch with the show. Let us know what is the shittest superhero power that you can think of.

Let us know. See you can top mine, which is being invisible in the dark. So let's know. Our Twitter is at Fubar Radio. Go and just follow us anyway and just be cool. Yeah. We put out some funny shit. Go on everything.

We've got every outlet going, yeah? Just go check us out and everything. Just haul that. Pull that out. Hold that out. You know what I mean? I like that. I like that.

There's technological legs. Wow! You're coming up with the saying today, but I'm on fire. It's going to be like, quote, Joanna or something like that. You're going to be trending real soon. I'm feeling it. Thank you, babe. Thank you.

And so, another bit of news. Emerald City has been cancelled by NBC after one season, which is a bit sad because I've heard some really, really good things about it. We even had a guy from the show doing interviews. It's a bit sad because... Emerald. Is it like the... was it that there's

Wizard of Oz Yeah it's set in the Emerald City of Wizard of Oz But it's kind of It was It's just a bit I'm kind of like Scratching my head

About why it did go under Because Game of Thrones is popular Once Upon a Time is so popular So obviously there's But I mean they had tin man Which it's kind of been done There's been a lot of Wizard of Oz Spinoff so it's a bit

Just leave the old's world I mean How many tin mans and lions Can you make You know what I mean Sad times But hey Hey

you know, you win some and you do some, eh? Yes, maybe check it out. Let us know what you think of Emerald City. Maybe we could, you know, they could try and get it back because I remember the BBC, they cancelled Ripper Street a couple years back. And I was a massive Ripper Street fan. It's such a good series. And there was, they cancelled it.

And the fans went, nah. No, not having it. And they, like, petitioned and they actually got it back on. The BBC didn't take it up, Amazon did. So now you can watch it on Amazon Prime. Oh, wow. So I think that, you know, if you really do love a show, it shows that the audience

they matter and you can actually sway you can get stuff back on another two series or something after just like Futurama that got cancelled and then after they realised actually it's really good and they brought it back and then it's cancelled again it's kind of like a relationship you know

on and off and on again no she's quite good did I like it oh it's a bit of a repeat now let's go do you know I saw talking of cancelled shows there was a show called Fuzz which had one it had one series okay so it was like

a police drama or comedy kind of thing. Yeah. But they had Muppets who were, so like humans and Muppets kind of coexist, like in the same world. But it was like the Muppets were really naughty, so it was kind of adult show. Like Avenue Q-star.

Yeah, but it only had one series. I mean, I enjoyed that show. Can they bring it back just for me? Okay. If you're listening, producers of that show, T.J. wants it back, so sort that out, please. And one more show. Okay.

The Fades. On BBC Free. The Fades. Was that like a barbering show? No. No. It was a, like a zombie show, but with Daniel Kalula, yeah.

The best thing BBC 3 ever made, second to people just do nothing, okay? And he cancelled it. I don't understand why it was really good. So bring that back as well, just for me. Oh, right, okay. And bring back BBC 3 as well. Just, you know, did you hear him? Did you hear him? That's it. TJ has spoken.

T's world has spoken. T's role has spoken. So, Paris Jackson, Michael Jackson's little girl. Oh my gosh, this troublemaker gone. She ain't so little anymore. No, but she's really sorting her stuff out. Because she was in the news a couple of years,

ago for obviously her mental health and all of that dark stuff. Bless her, bless her. Which I kind of don't really even judge her for being in the media crazy circus of Michael Jackson. From young as well. But she's sorting her shit out and she's like starred in Chanel campaigns

and whatnot and she's now getting into acting and she's just been cast in an untitled movie with Charlize Theron, Amanda Seifred and Thandi Newton, which is like epic. And it is about a businessman who gets caught up in the drug trade in Mexico It's like action adventure.

And it's directed by Nash Edgerton, Joel Edgerton's brother. And Joel Edgton's going to be in it as well. So I don't know what the movie's called. I'm trying to do my research. But Paris Jackson's going to be acting. Wow, check you out with some exclusive. That is nice. You are putting me on today, Joanna.

staring at my food so much? Is it hungry? And then my friend, because she was only a tiny, went, no, it's because you're eating out of the dog bowl. Oh, my. My gosh, can she not differentiate between... Was it dog food from the dog bowl or at real food in the dog bowl? The bowl that they were eating out or the plate was the plate that they used the dog.

because you've done a lot of comedy before. I have done a lot of comedy. You've been live at the Apollo for BBC One. Michael McIntyre. Did you go in before Michael McIntyre? Yeah, man. But yeah, we went, okay, let's lay down the groundwork here. Okay, okay.

Is that I knew all these guys before they became Michael McIntyre and all that I was there when they were like slugging it out up the creek and all of that and little Mikey in the back freaking out wondering if the crowd's gonna like him and die asking you if you could hold a dollar and stuff like that Hey Tom how'd you like my sad

And the thing is is that it's all camaraderie Some people float to the top some people at the middle Some people die away whatever It's the nature of the beast but because I knew all these guys, he had his road show. That was his big thing to come out, and he just took a lot of his friends,

and then for whatever reason, the joke that I told about this meat van, just, it was like a hit song, man. Really? Yeah, it was a number one hit song in the comedy show. What? I don't want to be a pain, Don't worry.

But now you've said that there's this joke. I really want to hear it. I don't want to be that person who says like told the comedian to tell a joke because that's so annoying. But okay, you want to know what I want you to do, T.J. I can't do it. I'm going to tell you why I can't do it.

Just because it's that long. Okay. Okay. I promise you. But what you can do for me, T.J. Yeah. Is you can download it on YouTube. Yeah.

And you can play it when I'm gone, man. Okay. What the hell was Tom talking about? Let's do that. Boom. So what was it called? It was... All you have to do is put in Meat Van Guy.

Meat Van Guy. And we can get that. We need to put that on the website or something like this. We're going to put that on YouTube right now. Yeah, totally. Hey, we're going to hook that. Take a look at how many views it's got. That's the world we're living in too, but in views.

Trust me all about views. Yeah. How many people are following me? I remember when that was a bad thing. Yeah. Oh my God. There's 14,000 people. following me.

Trust me. Imagine if it was one person following you, you'd be like scared in real life, but now it's a thing, isn't it? Yeah, now you're pissed off. What? Only one person following me? I haven't enough stalkers.

It's just bullshit. You know I'm more popular than that. That's mad. It's crazy how all the words that used to mean bad shit I've now become good shit. Viral. If someone's viral,

if you were ill. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. shit, they're viral. And now it's like a good thing. It's like, yeah, I'm viral. I'm number four about that. I went totally viral.

Nobody wanted to say that in the 80s. Get the fuck away from me. I'm going to turn around and get all my followers' viruses. I love it, you guy. It's true. It's backwards and it's completely upside down. Well, we're living in a world where everybody likes their, they're worried about everybody's feelings and all that.

other stuff, do you know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. We've changed. We're trying to like eggshells and that. Yeah, too. It can't be truthful. But comedy comes from the truth. So if you're not truthful,

then you're going to stop people from being funny. Come on now. My first ever comedy video was with Teage. We went viral together. Yes, we did. And we did. It came from me and him in a discussion. I said, oh, my mom really wants me to bring home a black boyfriend.

She was really desperate. And I was, like, I was seeing this girl who was, like, from a village, and she was a white girl. And it was at that. So we're sharing. We show the stories about that. And then we said, you know, we should just write a script and we'll just do a little, we'll just do a little video.

But imagine if we're bringing a black guy home to white middle class parents who they are so in love with him. They're pro. Yeah. So we did our research and every single joke and punning that was some, was a story that someone had told. Yes. And it just, people took to it really well.

And it was kind of like a take on, uh, um, Guess who's coming to dinner. Guess who's coming for dinner? You know, you said, you're going to say, forgive me. That sounds like something before 2000. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But I've heard rumors, right? Who's coming to dinner?

DJ's coming to dinner. That's what I'm saying. It's like based on the Sydney Portier film and we just kind of like changed it around. We put a spin on it. So it was fun. It was fun, it's fun. So, shit.

And nah, where is that? Where is that? Can I watch the shit? Yeah, it's on my Facebook page. It's on your Facebook. You've got to get that shit on YouTube, Janet. It's my Facebook page. It's like.

Oh, okay. It's a comedy page. There's like 700,000 followers. No way. I want her to have that on YouTube. So look, everyone, right, I'm back in Janah to get her YouTube page and she's going to get to. You got her back in her too, and I don't even know what that is.

Bam, bam, but I want her to have $5 million, yeah? Yeah, man. Because if she's flying, I'm flying. She's like 50 cent, yeah, and I'm like Lloyd Banks. So she's true, I come true, so I'm all for it. No, I'm taking you with me, mate. Don't worry. You were there at the beginning.

Like you and Michael McIntyre. Trust me. And that's good. I can't believe that. You must have been a nice person because, like, you know, some of these people, yeah, like from overseas and stuff like that? They're not always nice because there's no, it can be quite insular. But it's nice to know that you must have been welcoming for them to be nice to you and, you know, holler at you. You know what I mean?

Some people aren't like that or, you know, you could have been a wankar, but you clearly weren't. No, no. I get what you're saying. Trust me. There's a lot of ego in this business, man. As soon as you, TJ, as soon as soon as you. As soon as you start believing the shit that people tell you you are, that's when things get super fucked up, man.

You were talking about Walthamstow, just as in the beginning. At least you know where you come from. You always got to have that base to know where you are. Like, I'm from small town, Burdice, Columbia, okay? Like, I wasn't supposed to leave those mountains. I was supposed to die there and chop wood. The fact of the matter, yeah, they would love you there, T. Yeah.

Yeah? Yeah, I'd bring in a heartbeat, man. I'm going to hold you today. You heard it here a few while. No more. Yeah, me and TJ. We'll take some pictures, send him viral. But, yeah, you got to always know where you started out, man.

You know what I mean? And then you can appreciate what the fuck you got instead of expected all the time. Exactly. You know, and that's a big deal for me, man. I never looked for fame, TJ. Fame found me, man. That's amazing. You know what I mean?

I never really had a goal because I'm like Mr. Zen, you know, in the morning, about 10 minutes. Get myself ready for the illusion that's about to come my way. Let's check out what this actor has to say to me. Get the fuck out of my way. Good roll. Good roll. I like it, but I can see why people would warm to you and why you say it came to you, like, all jokes aside,

like, you are, like, amazing, you are a big character. And like, you know, and for you to be so cool, like, you know, I mean, I can't believe how nice a guy you are, do you know what I'm saying? Like, reading all you that you've done, yeah, for you to be, like, so cool like you. Teach just ask him out already. I'm not, but he's don't, like.

Yeah the front door was closed So there was that And it was just a series where it was just like bang bang bang I was on the road Life was just pummeling you My marriage was crumbling I was very happy

As you can imagine So I shut everything down And I was on, the final things I was stalked by a member of the BMP because I had a radio show in Liverpool. And so I got, look at him on, shack up. But you're like, claws on a moat. No, but you're, close on a month, miss speaking. Sorry, no.

He's in shock. I'm in awe. I'm in all. Like, you know what? Like, you're one strong woman. It sounds like a movie. Yeah. But you know what?

I wasn't strong at first. At first, I was evil, drinking, shalting, fighting. And then you go, how far are you going to take that? Yeah. You know what I mean? You know, the negativity. And, you know, you know, You've got to get on with the right people.

You're with the wrong people. They're all like, in it blood, in it, ma. Ne, nah, nah. They drag you down in you. Yeah, I just had to cut everything off. I had to cut off work. I had to concentrate. Because all of a sudden, a 19-year-old person

has passed in my house who I adore. And you think, oh, here's me running around trying to get next soap and next TV show. And I've got a three-year-old son. Is he damaged by the dead babysitter? Who would know? So I had to go in. Right?

Quiet. Facebook, gone. Yeah. To a tweet fita, so I had to deal with what was going on between my ears and my heart and raised my son. And after a couple of years,

I went back to university and I was doing something on black representation in the media, a master's degree. And they could see that, they could see I wasn't quite right. So they said, why don't you write a one-woman show? And I'm like, no, no.

They asked me several times, Roger Shannon. And I did. And the rest is what you know. It's here. It's a rise. Yeah. Amazing.

Yeah, okay. I actually think I wouldn't want anyone to go through what I went through, but I actually think in a way I could have only written something like this as a result of that time. Yeah. Because someone said to me, how did you come up with it? My mind was that scrambled. I think I was like getting radio frequencies. I was very, very depressed.

I was very, very low. So, you know, I do go through all those people in that time, but. Yeah, for sure. How different are the nine people from each other? Well, the first one is So Bobby Blue. He's a 62-year-old medium-mergo. Okay. And then we have Rasta.

I mean, you know, the blood, the band them. We have one among them. And then we have sort of... Her name's Amy Tan, and she's like 18, but she lives in Liverpool. And she's got like one brow, like a scouse brow. Scouse brow. Like a scouse brow. And curl is all.

It was a different genre. It was a different jam on. different people came, different man came to than usual. Like it's a different flow, right? When I put different hair on different man, come. Is it? Yeah, it's like different, I'm like, oh, who do I want today? Okay. Okay. It is an art. It is an art. Like, I can go I could go on a tube journey with no makeup on and I could

be invisible. Really? Yeah, for sure. And then I could literally put the fake eye on and something. Like, well, you proved my point. No, I just did you look more girlier. I've never looked at you and is like, yeah, I'm like, yeah, I don't want to hear them of the sexual relations. No, there is nothing. But I've never seen them like. I'm telling you. There's only so much of a guest, Kianti. Cool, it's much of a muchness anyway.

Yeah. Has anything ever gone wrong? Because in a one person's show, it must be really hard because you haven't got that person to go, help me. Yeah. What would go? Oh, yeah, I guess you got the free to do. Okay, so you know when you're doing radio, I don't know about how you guys prep, but the BBC, you know, you've got all the running list and the this and this link, this thing.

this thing. The first time I went on air, I remember saying to the morning presenter, oh, I didn't do this. He goes, no one knows your script. And it stayed with me. So no one knows my script. So if I fall down, roll and cry, I will somehow segue that into something. Try. Yeah. Unless I bleed or anything falls off my body. I think when your body starts to break down on stage, I'd be done. But if my body stays intact, I pretty much would carry on. Okay, I hear that. No, it's true. Isn't it?

You've never heard the adage? The show must go on? Yeah. The theatre types, that's what we do. But then what if, like, you've forgotten a whole segment, yeah, and then it's gone from 70 minutes to, like, 40 minutes? I'd go and get a drink. I'd get everyone bladed afterwards.

I'd say the base of it, no, the rest of it takes place in the bar. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And for? Yeah, exactly. This is the interactive part of identity crisis at the Oval House. This is the interactive part. Who are you?

you. Yes, exactly. But it's the audience. Oh, wow. That we, that we... Yes, how do you get your identity? Yeah. Mine's it. Shampas, thank you. I like it. I like it. I like it. I like it. How do they know?

I don't know. I'd be so nervous. Like, doing... I mean, all of people were able to do, like, one person shows. It's just like... I just... Stand up. Let me tell you something. The death of the girl changed me. That's the legacy of my niece passing. I wouldn't have done a one-moment show.

I've wanted to do... Like, this fella that was in... before. I've wanted to do something stand up and all of that. I... You should. I heart that stuff. I think it's amazing. I like the idea of you create it and you bring it forward. But I was like, sit and waiting

for somebody to cast me on a TV show because that's my comfort zone. And then all bets were off. I got rocketed out of the canon. I didn't want to go out of the canon. It was either like... I mean, I had dark thoughts. I had a two or three year period where I didn't even want to be here. And if I didn't have a toddler...

Yeah. That I had to bring through because I thought, well, I can't end my life because I've got to raise one. You've got to breathe for. You need to. You've got to be selfless. A survivor guilt. I hear that. That comes with that.

How are you going to call up somebody and say, you know, she came to babysit? Well, right? Right? So that's where the strength came from. Sometimes life intervenes nastily. Yeah, of course. Change as a result of it.

It's good. If you hang on. I hear that. I was hanging on. If you hang on. I just got goosebumps. You know what I'm saying? Another Bluetooth

High five with me. But also just a memory as well. I can't remember what I did yesterday. I can't. I know, but remember this that it's, you know when they say you've got a talent for, like that man that was in before, obviously has a talent for a certain type of comedy.

It's part of your gifting. It's like Lewis Hamilton. If I drove like that, everyone would die at the speaker of Louis Hamilton. Because I don't have that kind of gift. I can't hold steady. You get me? Of course.

So there's something about me. We've got 25 years as a model and an actor. I've done many, many plays. I've done many, many TV shows. I've come out of the soap where all you do is spit lines. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Spit, spit lines. Of course. The role of a soap opera actress

is to memorize 70 pages of dialogue a week. That's your job. That's true. Think about it. So it's not, yeah, I guess it's not as daunting when you think about it like that. Yeah, and also you go up to it slowly. And then the other thing I would say is

there is a song from when you were, 15. You know every word, true or false. Yeah. Yes. It's that expanded. You see? It's that part of your brain expanded and then added to and expanded and then added to. Everyone says, how'd you know how'd you know memorized? And I go, you could sing the words

to Greece or probably the whole album of ABBA or whatever. Yeah. It's that. Expanded. Just a couple albums. Yeah, a couple albums. A couple albums. A couple albums. They're movement done. That's true. It's like me and Grimes songs. I know Auntie and Grimes songs. I could do five in a row and technically that's like a one-man show.

And imagine if you spoke them instead of that fast, it would go on for hours. Hey, I'll just enter the Matrix again. Dude, I can't, it's too fast the crime. I'm like, is it? Hello. I guess that's me. I mean, obviously I'm only 24. I think it's a generational thing.

Yeah. I think it's a double laugh so hard. I think it's a generational thing. I'm like, oh, it's can't. Amazing. I don't grime. If anyone, if anyone's listening now and being like, what are we talking about? We are talking to Fina Arush, who is talking about,

Identity Crisis. It's going to be on at the Oval Theatre from Tuesday for a week. Amazing. So go check it out. Ovalhouse.com. We have the website. Yeah, you jumped in. Amazing. Thank you so much for coming on. And all the best of luck for show, break a leg. Or even if you do, cover it. No one knows.

Yeah, exactly. And keep being amazing. You are amazing. You're dope. Brilliant. Why, we are, I think this is the last Guardians of the Galaxy song we've got for today. It's Father and Son by Cat Stevens. Enjoy. Back row and chill

with Johanna James and Noel Clark on Fubar Radio. Hello, welcome back and I'm joined by two very special guests in the studio this afternoon. We've got Hope Dixon Leach and Ellie Kendrick who are going to be talking to us about their new movie The Leveling.

So welcome, welcome. Thank you. Lovely to be here. And so I will just jump right in. I saw the movie this week and is very powerful, very dark, gritty, beautiful. emotionally powerful.

Yeah. And so yeah, it was quite intense. It was intense to watch, and it's one of those films that you walk away and you go, I need a cup of tea. Right. Or a glass of brandy. Definitely not a glass of milk with your tea. Oh, no, no.

So if anyone's like, what is this? So the leveling is, or do you want to sort of do a synopsis, you know, the film way better than me. Yeah, the leveling is a drama kind of told a bit like a thriller. And it's about a young woman who comes home to her family farm when she discovers that her brother has died. She hasn't been home for about seven years. She's fallen out with her dad and she comes home planning to blame her dad for her brother's suicide

but she's really there to find out what's happened. And along the way, she and her dad have to find common ground and figure out how they're going to deal with the future. So ultimately it's a reconciliation story but it starts off with some big questions about what's happened. No, for sure. And you play the lead, Clover.

Yes. I love that name, by the way. Yeah, great name. I love that known too. And how did this project come about for you? And why did you choose to play Clover? Well, it came about for me in a kind of a conventional route, I suppose, in that I was just sent the script via my agent and invited to audition

and very readily accepted that invitation because, as you'll know, if you watch the film, it is an absolutely cracking part. So it was really excited for me. It all just happened quite quickly. I mean, got the script through, auditioned, and then you guys gave me the part. So then we had to wait a couple of months before filming. and I was like, I was so ready to go. And so it was really exciting to build up to it.

But yes, I just got straight on set and got stuck in. It was so clear that this was Ellie's role. I mean, it was just, I couldn't imagine anyone else doing it. And I was sort of, after the audition, I wanted to run out of the room and just go, can we just give it down right now? And, you know, the casting director was like, no, we need to do this properly, talk to her agent, you know. But it was a dream right from the beginning.

And I just, all the way through, you know, Every day on the set, every day Ellie would sort of astound me with her, not just her talent, but her sort of generosity as an actor, how much she was willing to open up and share, which, as you know, for this part, is really important because it has to be emotionally truthful. And the emotions in this, like, I was watching, like, really in awe of your performance, because throughout the whole film, really, you're on, like, level 10 emotional status. You're, like, absolutely in pieces. how did you sort of get into that

and then how did you bring yourself back out of that? Great, two great questions. Well, it's always interesting when you're making any film but particularly a very emotionally intense film because I don't know if you or your listeners are aware but films have almost always filmed out with sequence. So you'll be filming a scene from the end and then you'll film something right from the beginning

and then after that it'll be somewhere in the middle and you have to kind of switch around all the time so you have to really keep track of where your characters are emotionally. So I did all sorts of nerdy little. graphs and and kind of plotted the script really carefully in my own words

and made sure I knew it inside out. So getting involved in it was quite daunting but because the script was already so well written there was so much to work with it was as you say it was the leaving it afterwards that was possibly harder than getting into it so we shot the whole thing in four weeks

it was a really fast shoot a really tight-knit group of people. The crew was pretty small for a film crew lots of women though which was really exciting for me the first time I'd ever work with an all-female film crew, which was Ace, and loads of female HDs and obviously, hope, manning the ship or womaning the ship, as I'd say. And, yeah, so it not only was it as a brilliant part

and a very emotionally involving one, but it was also a great community that I was able to make this film with. So then leaving was very sad. I think we all sort of shed a little tear on the night's day, didn't we? I didn't know how we were going to leave. I mean, I'd been away from home for two months, I'd left my children behind, So it was very emotional coming and doing this.

There was a lot of pressure. It's my first film. But at the end, I was like, but I can't leave now. This is my new family and I don't want to go. And we all were a little bit freaked out on the last night. Because we were all living together in this kind of series of like bungalows and this strange old, kind of semi-abandoned holiday home, I want to say. But it ended up actually being a blessing in disguise

because we all would kind of go over to each other's house for dinner after filming. And, you know, we were all there every week, you know, because there was nowhere else to go. So we became very close, very quickly, which was great. And was that a very different filming experience from Game of Thrones? Yeah, so I had a day and a half in between finishing this role and starting on the season of Game of Thrones that I was doing. So, yes, it was a really, really intense shift

because you go from something which is, you know, an independent British film with, you know, as I said, you know, a smaller crew, very intense, kind of almost chamber piece. It's just these couple of these two or three characters, really, in the house really. I mean, you know, you see a lot of the land and the nature as well, but it's based in that locale. So then you go from there to

I went to Belfast, huge set, like, you know, cranes everywhere and a massive crew, you know, 10% of whom I knew. And I was there with my rabbit fur cape thinking, how do I get here from the farm that I was on two days ago? I think you did, did you not do a day in the middle of the film as well? I seem to remember you going off and then coming back

and the next day I was like so how was yesterday and you said oh I walked up to a horse and I said well what else did you do and you said I walked up to a horse

all day that's all I did all day and I said wow you said yeah I think maybe 10 seconds of footage that's what we shot yesterday

and I was like wow I said okay well today we're shooting six pages are you ready and Ellie was like hell yes yeah you get used you have to get used

to completely different because obviously with stuff which is you know mega production values they I mean they spend like seven months a year filming Game of Thrones. Wow.

So it's a lot slower. And there are elements of that process that are rewarding, but it's amazing to be able to flip back and forwards between, you know, really fast shooting from the hip sort of filmmaking and then shooting from very, very far behind, you know, massive wide shots shooting the horse. So, yeah, so it's good to be able to switch in between the two. Just in terms of like this film, obviously,

it's about farming and British farming. Did you know anything, either of you, about British farming, and how much sort of like research and cow milking did you have to do? That's a really good question. I actually grew up in a city. I grew up in Hong Kong, so I didn't know very much. And I kind of got drawn to this through the stories that I'd read and seen in the newspaper about the 2014 floods in Somerset.

And I went down and through a very helpful contact called Matilda Templey who'd taken these photos like saw in the paper. I got introduced to a lot of the farmers who had been flooded out during the levels, during the floods. And they were just brilliant because they had understood and seen how effective it was to get their story out there in the news. And so once they, you know, knew who I was and what my intentions were, they really opened up and told me a lot. And so it sort of started from a very personal kind of drama kind of story. But then through that, obviously, I realized how essential it was to get this right, you know, not just however it felt. and what actually happened,

but actually how farming works and what are the things that tip the scales? You know, what are the things that push you over the edge if you're struggling as a farmer? So we did a lot of research. We both learnt to milk cows. Yep, and David Trowden did as well.

We all learned to milk cows, but I was better than him. It's a useful skills. You never know, yeah. You never know when you're going to need to milk a cow. Yeah, exactly. It could be an apocalypse at some point and we're going to all need to know how to milk.

Almost definite, I think. Yeah. But they need to be milk twice a day, like without fail, every single day of the year, which I didn't realize. And we were filming on a working farm, so all of the shooting had to be done around the scheduling of when the cows were going to be milk.

Because obviously they get really grumpy if they're not milk, because... I don't really all. Yeah. Well, seriously, I just stopped breastfeeding a couple of months before, and I was, like, looking at these cows, kind of pouring the ground, and I was like, oh, this hurts, my boobs, just looking.

But, you know, yeah, they, you know, it's a very regimented thing, and they have to get pregnant a lot in order to keep, you know, so they're being... inseminated and you're seeing you know, carves everywhere and it's, you know, it's kind of a crazy, crazy world. It's all going down on the farm. Yeah.

And just lastly, if anyone's like, okay, I want to see this movie now, what are they talking about? How would they go about seeing, or where can they go and see? Well, the film comes out nationwide on the 12th of May. Perfect.

There's a website, the leveling hyphen film.com, which has all the locations where it's playing around the country. There are some preview screenings this week. Tonight, we're at the picture house. Tomorrow we're in Bristol. and then it's also on VOD at the same time

so it'll be on iTunes and things like that. Okay, perfect, so people can get their finger on it. 12th of May, come and watch the most dramatic film without cows you've ever seen. That's brilliant. And just really quickly to wrap up, what's next after both of you? What's your next project?

That's always a terrifying question to ask it. I know, it's mean, I feel mean saying it. Are you employed? I've got a thing that I'm doing a play but I'm not allowed to talk about it until next week. because they're not announcing it yet, but I'm going to be in a play in London.

Amazing. I'm always quite jealous of people who say, I'm not allowed to talk about it. I know. I've got a few projects that I'm developing at the moment. I'm writing some. I'm looking at some great scripts that have been sent my way, and I'm just trying to figure out which one. As you know, it takes a long time to get the money,

which one will go first. So it's an exciting time. Perfect. Well, thank you so much guys for coming in, and that's the leveling, which will be out on the 12th of May. Thank you. Thanks, Joanna. Thank you.

on Subar Radio. Amazing. She was super cool. Girl from Game of Thrones. Excellent. We've been joined. It's 5.30. So we've been joined by Lucy Patterson,

who's going to do film reviews. Film Camp Time. I feel like we should, I want to have something like a bit more of a better cue for that. I'll work on that next week. She needs a jing out. I feel like I need a jingle. I feel like we say it every week and nobody delivers.

No one's there for me to give daggers to, even. What about, what about, um, film review time with Lucy Panette. I like it, I like it. Yeah, no. I like it. I like your voice you do, Johanna.

When I do, yeah, like when I did, what was it, entertainment news. It's now time for entertainment news on that kind of breakfast, poultry. It's like eyelashes, Johanna. Eyelashes, yeah, oh, I put on the voice. Hey, hey, babe, yeah, when I want some of my boyfriend. Wait, can I have that? But please, yeah.

Yeah. So this is the part of the show When we talk about anything that we've seen Where we're going to give it a little bit of review And basically tell you guys at home What we think is really awesome What we also think is really shit Because we don't want you to waste your time

And your monies and your time mainly Time is money Yeah So what have people been seeing and loving Or hating Or not really minding Well This week

I thought I'm going to have a break From these big action films And horror films And you know All these genre pieces that have been coming out That have been good you know, and I thought I'd go and see a sickly sweet, lovely little story.

Okay. And I went to see a dog's purpose. Ah, right. Now, there's been a lot of controversy around that. For sure, yeah. But I thought, okay, I'm just going to ignore that, which, you know, probably is a bad thing, but we won't go into that. Well, you're looking at it objectively. You're going in for an... I just thought, exactly.

I thought, I'm going to go and get my own opinion based on the film alone and not these stories that have been coming out about it, whether they're true or not, I don't know. I need to go and read up and... There was specular. There was speculation about animal cruelty in the film. But then as much as there was, like, proof of it, there was also sort of, you know,

disprove. You don't know. You can edit anything to look any way you want it to, you know. Look at Planet Eddie apes. You know what I mean? Exactly. No monkeys were harm. Just computer graphics.

Exactly. You just don't know what they've done, do you? Trust me. So I thought, okay, I'm going to go and see that and have a cry. And, oh my God, did I cry? Did you all? It's adapted from a book of the same name. and it's basically about this dog

that gets reincarnated into different dogs' bodies and different purposes in people's lives, like a police dog, just a puppy for a lonely kid and things like that. It sounds really, really sickly sweet, and it was. It was a lovely, lovely film

starring Dennis Quaid, for one, who I love. I'm so pleased he's still around. Daddy and the parent trap. Always forever will be. He's just amazing, and he? And a lovely little KJ. Apper from Revelde. Oh, okay. Archie from Riverdale, isn't it? And you can still see the tinge of the red hair as well. Yeah. The tinge of the change. But yeah, the story was bit stupid really, but I enjoyed it. I took my mum to see it. We cried our eyes out. It had a lovely soundtrack, lovely acting. You know, it was worth my money and time, I think, to just go and have a little break from the norm. Is it a family friendly film or knock on? It is. It's a family film.

family films, so it's not horrid. It's like Molly and me made everyone great. It's like a dog that's got a cat's lives. Basically, yeah. But it comes back in different ones. At one point, like I said, he was a police dog. In a girl's, in a female dog's body. He was all confused about that. And a lot of the narration is that, oh, who is it?

Josh Gad, isn't it? It's Josh Gad, yes. He plays Olaf in Frozen. And Lefoo in Beauty and the Beast. And he's the voice of the dog, basically. Oh, cool. And you follow him through all of his lives and all the people that he ends up being owned by and the difference he makes to their lives and things like that. You know, like I said, it's just a lovely, lovely film.

And I would go see it. Ignore the controversy. If you can, if you are more morally sound than I am, then don't go see it. But, you know, I enjoyed it. It's lovely. I'm sure that some of these dogs are living a better life than some humans. Exactly.

I mean, as much as, you know, they say this, that and the other, but I'm sure I would think that it wouldn't be that. Dogs in the industry are notoriously pampered. And they're so well looked after. And a lot of the time more looked after than the actual actors. You know, you hear that a lot, don't you? I mean, I was in the play, and next door they was doing the pantomime, and pudsy the dog, you know, was in it.

I bet it was living the high life, weren't he? Hey. Cedigree. When he rolled up, and can I say, let's just say that let's say there's, how can I, I don't even know if I'm allowed to say I don't even care, I don't even know

there's more than one Pudsy. Exclusive. Shut up. There's not. You have literally blown up. Hey, I know I have just killed the two fairy Santa Claus and everything else all in one. Trust me.

I'm genuinely sure. Hey, don't tell nobody that I told you but I told you in it, you get me? There's more than one Pugsy dog. Oh my God. Hey, trust, but this is what they do. How many are there? Well, that's all I'm saying.

When the car rolled, holy shit. Trust me. What? Well, they have to have a backup because it died. But it's not even that. You have to remember.

The same thing they did it with babies. So I did an advert the other day, yeah? One board, like I did it for one board every minute, yeah. And they had, I played a father, like a new father, whatever. Okay, and they had two babies. They were twin, it was a twin baby.

Okay, so there was one who, who, who, who, pride a lot and one that didn't. And if one needs to sleep, she switched them out. So they do it with children. Also, when they had the dogs on the other show, you've got to remember, like, you can only teach a dog so many tricks, yeah? So sometimes you can't teach your old dog new tricks. One does backflips and one does roly-poly's in it, do you know what I'm saying?

I'm genuinely tough. It's the same with football adverts as well. When they get the trickers to come in and do it, then they go cut to Ronaldo's face. Dogs do it, people do it. There you go. I'm stunned. World exclusive. That is.

I hope I don't get sued now I feel like the masked magician Who is blackballed from everything I know I know I'm bad from the dog circle You won't get no pets now I know I know oh well That's life After that revelation

Go and see it's lovely Take your mom or take your nan or whatever But I must admit If I was at home I would have been screeching I was crying that much But then I do cry at everything I cried I cried the most I've probably ever cried

In a very long time at a show I finally got to the end of 13 reasons why on Netflix. Oh, I nearly gave up, because the only thing I have about that show, it was good, but they just, they drew it out. It should have been four episodes short short. Yeah, it should.

There were so many episodes, which... How many are roughly... 13? 13 episodes. And is it... Is it set up the premise of the show, sorry. So basically, if anyone's listening, is like, what is this 13 reasons? This is this Netflix original.

It's about a girl called Hannah Baker who commits suicide, and she leaves behind some cassette tapes for her friends, well, not for her friends, the group of people at her high school that essentially caused her to commit it. And so she leaves and there's 13 reasons, 13 sides of

the tape, about all the reasons, because essentially it's deeper than that, it's never one thing that goes, oh, it's like when 13 reasons collide on top of each other, and it's like the escalation into... They're all intertwined with each other as well, the people, the subjects of the tape, you know? It's not based on the

choose... Well, it's not based on a particular true story, but it's kind of a collective of all of the suicide circles, and the bully, the cyberbullying and it's really bringing, it's bringing attention to the fact that nowadays in school, there is major cyber bully it going on and it's kind of as a warning sign to anyone to say,

you never know, just sharing that nude or like just saying, it's made me, it's proper made me think about how you treat people because you never know what's going on. You don't know how they're going to take some tiny thing that you said. That one little comment or that one little shitty thing could be the thing that just tops the dominole. And when you're young, you're only as old as you are then,

so you never know or see a way out of you, you never see another side. No, you don't. There's bad things that have happened to me in my past, like, you know, like breakups and makeups and whatever. And at the time, it was like the end of the fucking world. Like, no, I see these, I'll laugh. I'm like, I won't even in love.

You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying? But that's the thing, though. It wasn't even a relationship. It's like a relation dingy. Relationship. One thing that I look to, so obviously, it's quite a dark premise,

but it's executed so well and so real. And so many people, people I've said, they said, I wish I could have watched that when I was going through high school. So for anyone who's going through school now, it's great to watch. But anyone who's, like, left school and I was, is like, oh, wish I could have, I would have related. Look back and feel ashamed of yourself. I would have to relate to that. And correct your behaviour.

Yeah, but that's what these kids have to remember. And I know, we're all been there. And it's like, you have to look back and there's going to come a time. I said it to, like, younger, like, boys that I know in my area. And I've seen them. I'm like, you're going to be one day that you're going to laugh. I remember one kid, my next door neighbor. He came to me.

He was upset. oh you broke her girlfriend, she did this, I did, whatever, you don't understand to you. I'm like, mate, I'm like, mate. I said, watch come, they're going to be in my garden, laughing, coming next summer, I was in the garden laughing, cooking, and whatever, do you know what I'm saying? So there is always a time just being strong and it's hard, it's easier said and done, but trust me, there will come a time where you will laugh, in it, you know what I mean? This is inspirational. I think we should have a section of the show to DJ where you just like give good advice. Motivational TJ.

I teach safeguarding. I teach safeguarding. I do acting, I do fit in education, stuff like that. And this whole thing, like with NSBCC, they do thing around about, we're teaching adults, they do these cartoons. And it's more to inform adults about, you know, kids, you know, taking pictures, selfies and all this, and the other.

And the things kids don't know, they think it's bans, but then they can be put on the sex offenders list for sharing these photos. You crop it and you crop a photo, then you get done for making it in decent image, you know, you can, all these little things. So these kids have to be careful.

It's fun and it's jokes. You might be in a bans, it might be whatever. But when you, you crop, it's the fan, trust me. Implications. Yeah, NSPCC, I do stuff around that as well. They're only getting harder. Like, they're coming down on it harder and harder every year. Exactly. It affects nice.

But, yeah. Stick together girls as well. Like, don't hand. So I would absolutely recommend 13 reasons why. It starts off great and then there is a couple episodes in the middle where you are like, come on, get to the point, get to the end. It's also quite uncomfortable to watch at times as well. Yeah. And it's got a hell of a lot of shit backlash, hasn't it?

Yeah, because I think people are very uncomfortable talking about, because that's exactly what the whole show is saying, saying that that shit, shit goes on and schools don't do anything. It's kind of going, oh, you know, you'll be out of high school soon and it'd be like, no, it should be, it should be corrected. There and then, yeah. Safety measures upon safety measures upon safety measures.

So that if, if someone falls through, nobody should be falling through any group. I think everybody should watch it, no matter how they feel. Yeah, just get your opinion on it before you slate it, just watch it. Just watch it and then you're, yeah. But I was crying. because it just especially the way they've done it that you do it through the eyes of one boy he's listening to all the tape so he's the one that's uncovering

all the story and then he's on the tape as well but what is like just so upset it's like a love story but it's like as if Romeo and Juliet but if Juliet committed suicide and Romeo and they fall in love over the tapes and oh my gosh it is heart wrenching it really really is and when he listens to his own tape I was I was making those sobbing noises them ones

oh I did a tissue they were in love they were in love they should put a warning it sounds like it should come with a pack of Kleenex before you watch the show they actually poop at warnings

on Netflix they say this show has graphic themes and graphic images and there is actually like a net because they show the suicide yeah really graphically like more I don't think

I've ever seen although interestingly I read that in the book she lives is it really yeah so in the book book, there are two different, so there was the original book and then there's like a re, there's a, there's a, a re-writ, yeah. So the original book from like 2007, she lives. So the end

of it is that it was, she committed, she attempted to commit suicide and then at the end she pops up and she's actually alive. See, one of my friends actually said that to me, I was watching it ahead of her and she was going, I still think she's alive and I was like, I can't say anything, I'm just, what, don't I? Don't know, what, don't what, don't what, don't what you're talking about? Like, that was stupid. And I can see why she would think that. Yeah, I thought that at the how they could write that as well. But so originally she was going to be alive and then they obviously changed it

and then that they decided to go with which I think as much as I want I always want the happy ending but actually I think it's not always a happy ending and it's for TV you know TV sometimes has to be slightly differently they change things for more like you know like for viewing

value and so I don't want to say for entertainment because it's not really entertaining but you know for viewing value and it's one of those things but I'm I reckon this sounds like a guy cry because that's a new thing Oh yeah it's a guy cry I ain't cried since Will Smith and his son A Pursuit of Happiness

When he was in the toilet I'm hard I'm hard But I was like a sponge You know because when a sponge gets wet It goes softening it But when it dry it's hard And I'm usually in a dry state

But I was wet, soggy I was finished when it's so I imagine myself Being a far away Stop Yeah, okay Well I'll cry Let's move on It's getting hyper-emotional

But also another reason to watch it is the music in it It's just absolutely brilliant So I'm going to play a little bit My next sort of couple of songs are going to be from 13 reasons why We're going to start off with a thousand times I love this song This is backro and so I had a dream that you were mine

Starting to recover now from thinking too much about 13 minutes Yeah that was emotional That was deep man I'm sat down sat So a film that is not as emotional is Alien Covenant To be not emotional toll is it You know people do die

It depends what planet you're from If you're Martian you're going to be crying and sobbing So it's an alien covenant Also known as Alien 5 Really Scott it was really good I really wasn't expecting that much from it I'm glad I love it sci-fi I'm glad I love sci-fi and my favourite genre ever

And it was just executed really really well And it's one of the, see it in the cinema guys Oh, I'm so excited. I'm at all right. I'm going to go through it. And don't be, if you're a bit of a sort of, if you're scared of horror or of gore's not really your thing, I could handle it and I am not. And that says a lot because Johanna can't handle it. I can't handle anything. I got through it and I was on my own watching it.

Oh, well, we're done. Even better. You'd get two gold stars now. Yeah, gold stars for me. So is it a prequel? It is a sequel to Prometheus, which I think Prometheus is a prequel. It's so confusing. It's so Star Wars. And it's like learning to calm down.

But you don't have to have seen Prometheus. They kind of give you a quick rundown and you can kind of, you know, you don't have to be. Because to be fair, that film's boring. Yeah, I wasn't the fan of that one. But it's got Michael Fassbender in it. It's got Danny McBride who I interviewed today and we're going to be playing that next week.

But the film was just brilliant and really, really clever. There's plot twist that everyone dies. It's just like a classic. Lovely. Wow. And yeah, lots and lots of like twists and really. reveals and I was fully awake through the whole thing. Brilliant.

So it was really, really good. I'm looking forward to that because I watched, they've got like a virtual reality trailer on the Samsung and Lassies thing, which I've got. So you can kind of like watch this trailer and you're in it. Oh wow. So it's really short, but it's good like. And the alien comes out of the back and you're like, me. Yeah, I've got to see this.

I actually did that VR today. Yeah. When I went to the press junket, they said, oh, would you like to do the alien VR? Yeah. And I was a little bit nervous because I did try VR the week before and I nearly shat myself. It was awful. I did this VR, amazing VR game, where it was like dinosaurs are coming at you,

waves of dinosaurs and you've got to shoot the dinosaurs. And I, I kid you not, I had to rip the headset off because my heart, I was shaking. And I went in there, cocky ass, going, it's not even real. It's computer, in it, like. And I quite like dinosaurs, it's fine. Shit yourself.

And then, so when you're in there and your brain just absolutely does not understand that you're not in there and your brain and I turned and I heard this thing and I turned around there was a raptor right next to me and it went for me and I ripped off the headset anyway. Oh my god, I'm going to do an alien one I was like I don't know

but then everyone else did so I was like don't want to be a pussy I'm going to do it but this was an ingenious one because you go into the VR and if you are the alien Oh wow! Oh wow! Oh wow! Even if you're a twist even if you're so you're the alien inside someone's body you're like you're like and you look down and around

and you can see your legs and your arms and you see you growing and then you can see you're from the point of view of the alien. I think maybe for the next movie, they should twist it and it should be the alien side of the story. They're just really bloody hungry. Let's write that film. Subtitles the whole film, but I'm down.

Yeah. But I'm really raving about that. It was really, really good. And everyone in it was really, really good. And the main girl in it is, I was looking at her face through the whole thing going, who is she? I know her.

Who is she? She was the main lady in Fantastic Beasts. So if you're a fan of the... I don't know her name, but I know who you mean. remember her name either, but I know her face and she's in it and she's brilliant. And yeah, it really got me thinking about how I would

try and fight an alien if I had to. Wow. You should think about these things from time to time. We should have a little, you know, what weapon are you going to have to hand? You got a game plan. Exactly. That's game plan. It's up. And the other movie that I got to see, which we're doing a competition of today. So head over

at Food Bar Radio if you want to win the sleepless film pack. We're going to win. He's got glasses, T-shirt, key ring, wallet. Get your whole Jamie Fox on. Jamie Fox

Start a pat. So basically sleepless is one of those things where I don't that the name doesn't really

do anything and it's not particularly related I think it was because it was a French book called Blanche Noe which is like

sleepless nights lovely accent there to know I think but they should have changed the title because it's a good movie again

like the editing's really good they've got the best camera people the best editing the fight it was a bit John Wiki

oh well I like it The guy got stab, shot, run over and he's still going. Yeah, I'm about that line. And it's a bit like, well, I looked at it and went, oh, it's a black taken, isn't it? Because it's about this guy who his 16-year-old son gets kidnapped. And he goes rogue.

Oh, wow. I like that. So, sleepless, otherwise known as Black Taken. And it was good. You know, if you're into that. And if you just want one of those movies where, you know, you're not going to cry. You're not going to get too attached.

You just want to watch shit. Yeah. And it's all about this like massive Coke deal that's gone down and gone wrong and it's got gangsters who are like double-crossing gangsters. And it's got T-I in it as well, isn't it? The rapper, T-I, the rapper. I love T-I.

He's got the most beautiful symmetrical face I've ever seen. He's tiny man, you know? Is it? He's really short. So is DMX. T-I and D-M-X are short. I thought DMX was like a giant. No, D-M-X is short.

Both of them are short. Really? I find that. You're just shattering my world today, T. I know, I'm dropping something. It's a sklo! You are? Most celebrities are a lot smaller than you think.

Like Kylie as well, isn't it? Well, Carly's a little... And Kim Kardashian. She's been to be really... Oh, she's like 5'2y. Yeah. I'm a giant in real life. So when I wear heels, I'm like six foot.

See, I'm a midget, so I do need heels. I wish I was a midget sometimes. No, no, no, no, you got that whole Amazonian thing going on. Totally. That goddess thing going on. You carry it, right it, ride it. Own it, right. Right, right it.

Own it, hold it. This last year has been the only year that I've really properly worn heels and gone, fuck it. Yeah, fucking rise. I can see the train time. Exactly. I'm winning. Winning.

Oh, I'm just quickly going to pop back to our Twitter poll that we started earlier in the show. We asked people what superhero film should they stop making? Just leave it, guys. And at the moment, it's looking like 42% Superman, 25% Batman, 17% Spider-Man and 16% Avengers. So Avengers has gone right down. That was like really up earlier. I wouldn't agree with the Superman.

Which one's getting buried? Superman. Man's going to get the cut at the moment. Yeah. I don't agree, everybody on Twitter. I think, I think Spider-Man, I should just stop it now. Stop making Spider-Man movies. How many more people do you want to play Spider-Man?

No, no, this homecoming one looks all right, you know. I'm not backing you. I'm excited for Tom Holland. Yeah, you know, poor, he looks like some new gravy. I'm looking at him like a packet of pisto right now. Maybe just erased Toby McGuire out of it completely, and then we can start again. Yeah, we'll go around them about. But I voted Batman for that one.

I wouldn't mind if Batman. man goes. Actually, there's been a lot, isn't there? I mean, Avengers, I'm gonna get a...

I like to see that all the superheroes are together in one film, but it's annoying but they're going one step too far now. Yeah,

it's too much. Age of Ultron was one step too far in it. Yeah. Yeah. And I love X-Men but I don't know if I knew the other one.

I think they're done now. I'm never watching them ever again after Logan. Yeah, I did Logan and that's the end of it. That's the end for me as well. I hope so. But I mean,

unless they get a really cool little Logan, like the boy from Spider, man. Oh, like the girl from Logan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A little girl from Logan. Something like this. Yeah.
