They further explore Arnold's work ethic and motivations, glimpse his dark side, root for the sweetness of TV's Incredible Hulk, take a detour into Arnold's future acting career and merge muppets with talking dirty.

7 years on from Hercules, Arnold plays closer to home as a bodybuilder with a philosophy in Stay Hungry. Alex and Ben get to grips with this sprawling, improv-fuelled film and discuss the relative merits of the director's approach with a story so slight and a cast so disparate.

One thing stays true - the big man may not be the focus, but he is the centre.
