Welcome to Backstage, the film and TV review podcast from Sky News.
Claire Gregory is joined this week by Sky’s arts and entertainment correspondent Katie Spencer, and TV and film reviewer Stevie Wong.
The team give their thoughts on Happy Valley’s explosive finale and the showdown between Catherine Cawood and Tommy Lee Royce. Warning, there are spoilers, so if you’re still trying to avoid those, skip from 2:15 to 7:58.
Meanwhile, Joe Goldberg is back and up to no good. Penn Badgley joins the podcast to talk all things You series four.
Jessie Buckley and Claire Foy speak to the show about their Oscar-nominated film Women Talking, which is out this week in cinemas. Just a warning that the team will be discussing the film’s content of rape, sexual assault, and drug abuse. If you’d rather not listen to that, skip from 19:44 to 28:41.
New Sky Max comedy Funny Woman follows Gemma Arterton as a 1960s beauty queen trying to make it as a sitcom star in London. She tells the podcast why she thinks there’s still some way to go for funny women.
