    Radio 1’s Screen Time finale with Michael Fassbender

    This podcast, BBC Radio 1’s Screen Time, is taking a break to recalibrate, retune and come back stronger. But don’t worry, we’re going out with a bang as Michael Fassbender stops by to talk about his new Steven Soderbergh spy thriller 'Black Bag'. As well as his love of The Big Lebowski, his racing career and auditions that didn’t quite go to plan. We've left the best 'til last!

    From The Archives: Florence Pugh’s Movies That Made Me

    We're dipping into the back catalogue for this episode of Screen Time, and we time travel back to 2023 to hear Florence Pugh talk to our Ali about her career so far whilst she was in town talking about her (then) latest film, 'A Good Person'. Since then she’s been in 'Oppenheimer' and - if you listen to this interview - was up for being in Paddington 3. But then in the end, wasn't.

    Phil Dunster Interview Special

    Ted Lasso veteran and star of the new series of 'Surface', Phil Dunster, joins Ali for a chat about all sorts of happy nonsense this week. Including Reading’s best bits (the place, not the thing you do with words). There's also chat about YouTube rabbit holes and the times people have accidentally called Phil “Jamie Tartt” and not, you know, his actual name. There’s also some genuinely grown-up conversation about his career in there too. Anyroad, he’s perfectly charming, as you'll find out by listening to this episode!

    Awards Interview Special!

    It's awards season, so here are some awardsy conversations with awards-worthy people! That's Adrien Brody on 'The Brutalist' in the first half, and then Sean Baker and Mikey Madison on 'Anora'. 'The Brutalist' is, at long last - with emphasis on the word "long" - in cinemas here in the UK, while 'Anora' is available on digital download (the film first came out in November last year). Both are likely to win a fair few awards at the BAFTAs and the Oscars! So if you wanna feel like you're in the loop of award-worthy films, you've come to the right podcast!

    Ariana Grande ‘Becoming… Glinda’ Wicked Interview Special!

    Wicked has been, it’s fair to say, a bit of a hit. Filling up cinemas up and down the country (and across the globe), it’s undeniably a very big deal - and now it’s getting BAFTA and Oscar nominations even whilst it’s still in theatres, including one for Ariana Grande, Glinda herself. The very same Ariana Grande was kind enough to stop by BBC Radio 1 HQ recently for an in-depth discussion of her character and favourite moments from the film with our Ali. So as you may have guessed, if you’ve not seen the film yet… you may want to watch it before you press play on this one!

    The Best Films Of 2024 and Screen Time's Big 2025 Movie Preview!

    Just in the nick of time - as January finally decides to pack up its things and go home - friends of the podcast Clarisse Loughrey (of The Independent's Chief Film Critic Fame) and Ian Sandwell (Digital Spy's Movie Expert) stop by once again to talk to Ali about those motion picture films you've been hearing so much about. Things start with a review of films worth checking out that first arrived in 2024, then they look forward to the future to let you guys know what's worth circling on your calendars, release date-wise. Apologies in advance, of course, if any film releases change their dates at the last minute (we're looking at you, Mickey 17).
