This week, Laura has a catch up with the Senior Art Director she worked with on 'Marvel's Secret Invasion,' the hugely experienced Su Whitaker, who has also worked on MASSIVE films like 'The Dark Knight Rises,' 'Les Misérables,' 'Paddington,' and 'The Fifth Element.'
Su tells us about her long and varied career, and gives her advice to anyone looking to get started in the film industry.
Meanwhile, we get an update on the 'Steve Investigates' case as he tries to track down the designer of 'Fallout', and we hear some more of your hilarious Crew Confessions.

We're joined this week by our first guest of the season; Sustainability Coordinator Brendan Duffy.
