    It's the end of the season and there's an end-of-term feel as James lifts the lid on a hot new cooking show, predicts an Oscar winner and reveals his favourite film of all time. As guests Emily Brookes and Kylie Klein-Nixon reveal their top season finales, James reminisces about a snowglobe. And there's a bold call for a rather unlikely health service to get public funding.

    You want giant aliens, talking cats and stripping steelworkers? We got 'em! Albeit not in the same thing. That would be ridiculous. (Or would it? Hollywood - we're available!) Anyway, in the latest edition of the pod that takes the stress out of streaming, James, Kylie and Emily discuss where Prey rates in the Predator series, what's wrong with the latest big-budget animation and a nudey-rudey Britflick classic.

    Princess Diana's death stopped the world. A new documentary attempts to explain its causes, significance and ramifications using only archival footage.

Two other true stories are also on today's line-up: the Melanie Lynskey-starring Candy and Ron Howard's dramatisation of the incredible 2018 rescue of a Thai football team from a flooded cave system.
