Speaking with Ali in back early July, David Tennant and Michael Sheen were on fine, fine form talking about the second series of Amazon Prime Video's heavenly / devilish show Good Omens - based on the book by Neil Gaiman and the late, great Sir Terry Pratchett - indulging in a nerdy request for some autographs and generally being upstanding and accommodating in a way they truly excel. Warning: contains dad jokes. Because of course it does.

Kat’s choice for everyone’s favourite on and off film club? National Treasure. As in, Nic Cage and Sean Bean and puzzles and stealing the declaration of Independence. It’s better than you remember, honest.

Expect spoilerific and highly nerdy chat on everything from the score to, well, the very final shot. So… if you haven’t seen the movie yet, maybe now’s a good time?
