“His face reminds me of a Muppet”: Beckham, Coleen Rooney: The Real Wagatha Story, The Greatest Show Never Made, Bodies, BlackBerry, Totally Killer, The Creator
In this episode, we pay homage to the power of television when going through tough times. Plus, in not unrelated news, Sky Arts’ Portrait Artist of the Year.
In TV, Elaine’s been on a documentary extravaganza, with Netflix’s Beckham (12:33), Disney+’s Coleen Rooney: The Real Wagatha Story (22:55), and Amazon Prime’s The Greatest Show Never Made (29:34). We also have a brief chat about mind-bending Netflix drama Bodies (36:29), but will be coming back to this when Mark’s had a chance to watch it himself.
In film, biographical drama BlackBerry (40:45) makes Mark reminisce about the time you couldn't send emails on your phone, whilst comedy-horror Totally Killer (48:45) causes controversy with a key plotline. And we finish with our thoughts on Gareth Edwards’ The Creator (54:00).
