Susan Wokoma on extramarital sex in CHEATERS and Tim Robey on notable Hollywood flops
This week's episode was recorded live at the BFI Southbank last night, Monday 18th November 2024.
In this 96th edition of the MK3D show, Mark talks to Susan Wokoma about her role in short-form sitcom Cheaters. Series 2 releases tonight on BBC One and BBC iPlayer, and the first series is on BBC iPlayer now.
Mark also talks to fellow film critic Tim Robey, whose book Box Office Poison: Hollywood's Story in a Century of Flops was released by Faber earlier this month. Mark and Tim catch up about the most entertaining and deserving flops – as well as an underrated masterpiece.
Plus a few of the questions from this evening’s audience.
This show is the first half of edition #96 of the MK3D show. The second half of the show features Himesh Patel and James Norton, and is uploaded next week,
