Why eating nineteen bowls of noodles helped Gary Oldman get into character for Jackson Lamb – he joins Mark and Simon in the studio, fully in character for ‘Slow Horses season two’. Gary talks filming the new series, as well as the 25th anniversary of ‘Nil by Mouth.’

Mark reviews ‘White Noise’- an apocalyptic black comedy directed by Noah Baumbach and starring Greta Gerwig, Adam Driver and Don Cheadle, ‘Tori & Lokita,’ which tells the tale of two youngsters who are united by their shared experience of travelling  alone from Africa and having to contend with the cruel conditions of their exile in Belgium, the 1997 cult classic ‘Nil By Mouth’ which has been re-released by the BFI  for its 25th anniversary - written and directed by Gary Oldman, and ‘Violent Night’ - a new Christmas horror comedy – where Santa Claus is called in to rescue a wealthy family from a group of mercenaries.
