Julia Golding is joined by Ed Saunders, fantasy enthusiast, to discuss the recent big fantasy adaptations. What did The Witcher get right in its first series, what did The Mandalorian excel at, and where did Game of Thrones go wrong with the last season's story arc after a strong start. Is having a lockdown secret script a problem for creatives when it comes to testing story instincts? How are the writers going to climb the Everest that is the Amazon Prime Tolkien series? (Good luck guys!) In the final section, we pick our favourite bar or tavern in a fantasy universe.
