In this week’s episode, Elaine laments a certain celebrity’s exit from this year’s Strictly Come Dancing and we discuss a new podcast about a dolphin and his ‘friend’....
In telly, Mark’s been checking out psychological thriller Wilderness (9:30), whilst Elaine’s got mixed feelings on the latest Star Wars offering, Ahsoka (14:25).
In film, Mark has an unexpectedly strong reaction to Dumb Money (21:51), and we disagree about Ken Branagh’s new Poirot outing, A Haunting in Venice (34:20).
For those who are interested, the podcast we mention is called Hooked on Freddie and you can find it here: https://wondery.com/shows/hooked-on-freddie/
