Everything feels very vivid today, doesn't it? We've just watched 'Rehearsal' and we're ready to talk. Plus, our guest is the brilliant Rose Matafeo (Starstruck, Horndog), who scrutinises 'Succession' with the kind of rigour that Logan applies to ATN's pizza expenditure.

S04 E02 Such a Regretful 'No' - with Rose Matafeo

Sara Barron&nbsp;(Live at the Apollo; Would I Lie to You?) and husband Geoff Lloyd (Reasons to Be Cheerful; Absolute Radio, BBC Radio 5 Live) attempt to answer the biggest question of our time: Are you watching anything good at the moment? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

TV & Film

Hello! We're back in full-on Firecrotch & Normcore mode to look back on the 'Succession' finale, broadcast a year ago today.
It's *definitely* because we want to mark a significant cultural anniversary, and not because it's half-term and we thought we'd phone it in with a clip show so we can spend some time with our kid.

Anyone Remember 'Succession'?

It's a beautiful day in the neighbourhood, a beautiful day for a neighbour, would you be mine. WOULD YOU BE MINE?
This week, we buy flammable kids' clothes, we ask "Is there ever really COM alongside ROM?" plus we speak to a man who, in his 40s, made his dreams come true, Blue Lights co-creator Declan Lawn. Let him serve as a beacon of hope to none of us.

An Extraordinary Amount of Duct Tape. And DECLAN LAWN (Blue Lights)

Välkommen and bienvenue, welcome! We've been poring over this year's BAFTA TV award winners. Yay for Sarah Phelps and 'The Sixth Commandment'! But how did the UK television industry honour the swansong of 'Succession' - its finest export? NUL POINTS! We watched the show that usurped Business Throne.
PLUS: The Eurovision party isn't over. We talk to James Rogan, the man behind the new documentary, 'ABBA: Against The Odds'.

Stab It. Eat It. Yum. And James Rogan (ABBA: Against The Odds)

It's Cineaste Week! We don't know how it happened (we DO know how it happened) but this week we're all films, all the time. All available on your TV screen, of course. We watched one light confection, one terror-scape, and maaaaaaybe the best thing we've seen since Succession?
Also, this week's guest is the wonderful Ashley Storrie, co-writer and star of the BBC hit Dinosaur.

Olive Oil, Salt, Pepper, Quaker Oats. And Ashley Storrie (DINOSAUR)

We're baaaaaaaaack! Say this to yourself OR passers-by in the style of Poltergeist II.
We love all our guests equally, of course, but this week's is extra spesh because - HELLO - it's Succession writer and showrunner of The Regime, Will Tracy! We have an exciting connection, and the discovery of that connection, during the interview, was a major podcast highlight. 
Plus: Sara roleplays being a Deliverer of Hard Truths and Geoff confronts his fears about Unfrosted
