For this week's episode, our host Darren has been reflecting on the number of stage shows in the West End and on Broadway at the moment that are based on films. Why is it that film is currently such a huge source of inspiration for big theatrical productions? When has it been done well? And when has it felt like a bit of a mistake... or a cynical cash-grab?

New Episode Alert! 🚨

This week, Richard introduces a challenge to his fellow mulls: Can a film be truly great if nobody dies? We think they can, but there may be some debates along the way…

He's asked them each to bring along the names of movies that they believe are 5-star masterpieces in which no-one dies, and death is not pivotal to the story...

After listening, please send us your examples... or suggest similar challenges for the mulls to debate in future episodes.

New Episode Alert! 🚨

After a couple of weeks off, the mulls are back with a brand new episode! 🥳

This week, Justin is back in the hosting seat and brings another of his recasting challenges. This time he turns our attention to the much-loved musical reimagining of Little Shop of Horrors(1986).

From quiet introvert Seymour to the man-eating plant, Audrey 2, who in the cinema of today could take on these classic roles - as well as have the singing voices needed for songs like Suddenly Seymour, Somewhere That's Green and Feed Me!

His co-hosts put their casting skills to the test and come up with their own dream cast for this iconic movie.
