This episode features gorgeous George Mackay, who talks about his award-winning role in FEMME, and Jason Isaacs, who discusses playing Cary Grant in ARCHIE.

This episode of the Kermode on Film podcast is Part 2 of the 86th edition of the MK3D show, recorded live at the BFI Southbank on Monday 18 December 2023.

Last week’s podcast features Part 1 of that show, in which Mark talks to Sir Ian McKellen about playing HAMLET, and to star Mia McKenna-Bruce and director Molly Manning Walker about their feature HOW TO HAVE SEX.

Thanks for listening, and remember to keep watching the skies!
