Thursday Sep 24, 2020
Thursday Sep 24, 2020
It's time for us to move on from music and get into the world of the moving image. We're talking trains pulling into stations, believing men can fly and in space, no-one can hear George scream when Alex criticises Hamilton.
Listen in for our usual culture catch-up, find out whether George took on his unofficial homework assignment of watching Eurovision: The Story of Fire Saga, homework discussion and then settle in for the comfortable familiarity of the top 5 list. Ahhhhh, lovely stuff.
Spoilers below
Culture discussed in this week's culture catch-up: Knives Out, Don Jon, A Street Cat Named Bob, Folklore by Taylor Swift, Hamilton, The Package, The Lighthouse, Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga
