This episode is the first half of an MK3D show recorded live at the BFI Southbank on 7 October 2024.

To celebrate the beginning of the London Film Festival, Mark welcomes some incredible guests whose films will be premiering at the event. First up, Mark welcomes Sadie Frost to discuss her documentary, Twiggy, giving us a glimpse into the life and legacy of one of Britain's iconic models and her experiences on the big screen.

Later, Mark is joined by Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard to talk about their upcoming film, The Extraordinary Miss Flower.

They delve into the creative process behind crafting a non-genre-abiding film and discuss their previous works, such as 20,000 Days on Earth.
