I Jack Wright, Fake, and Doctor Who ‘Lux’ spoiler discussion. With guest David Oyelowo
With James away this week, it’s down to Boyd and Kay to take the helm and bang on about the week’s big TV but in a shock move, they admit James rewatching shows he’s seen thousands of times before is actually, dare we say it, a GOOD thing. More importantly, David Oyelowo is our guest, chatting all things Government Cheese (that’s the title of his new Apple TV+ show, not a dietary preference), and we review Fake, an Aussie true-life drama which triggers Kay’s dating experience memories, the whodunnit I, Jack Wright from Chris Lang of Unforgotten fame, and in a final twist, Boyd does a mini-spoiler special review of Doctor Who series 2, ep 2 ‘Lux’ because it deserves special treatment!(Episode 333)
