Mark has finally taken Elaine to see live wrestling. Find out what she made of it at the top of the show.
In TV, we start with a discussion on BBC drama Best Interests. This show depicts a parent’s fight to stop a hospital withdrawing treatment from her ill child. In our review of Best Interests, we touch on our own journey as parents of a disabled child with life limiting illnesses and also our experience of baby loss. This may be something you want to give a miss so please note our review of Best Interests runs from 12:29 to 25:26.
We also review episodes 3 and 4 of Black Mirror Season 6. You can listen to our spoiler free thoughts on Beyond the Sea from 25:26 and Mazey Day from 32:20. A reminder that our review of episodes 1 and 2 is available in our last show.
In film, we crack our whips and tip our fedoras as we review Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. We report on our friend and fellow podcaster Chris’ adventures at the London premiere, before sharing our spoiler-free thoughts on the movie (36:50). If you’ve seen the film and want to hang on for full spoilers, you’ll find them at 57:15.
