  • Episode #50: "Location Managing in La La Land" with Robert Foulkes

    Episode #50: "Location Managing in La La Land" with Robert Foulkes
    Apr 12 2021

    On today's episode I had a brilliant chat with the very talented Robert Foulkes who worked as the location manager for many of my favourite films including La La Land, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, and so much more! We spoke about everything from the films he made in high school with none other than Nicolas Cage to using Google Maps to track down the stunning locations used in Three Billboards, as well as the logistics in shooting ambitious dance sequences such as that iconic opening where "Another Day Of Sun" is performed on the freeway.

    Episode #48: "The Wind In The Willows (1996): 25 Years On!" with Richard James
    Mar 16 2021

    Today I'm talking to the wonderful actor Richard James about his experience of working on the 1996 film "The Wind in The Willows", directed by and starring Terry Jones, alongside Steve Coogan, Eric Idle, John Cleese, Victoria Wood, Stephen Fry, Michael Palin, and a whole host of British comedy legends. Richard spoke to me about being directed by a larger-than-life Terry Jones dressed as Toad, the chaos of filming the Weasel scenes at Toad Hall, and what he learned from being offered a bigger role than he auditioned for at such an early stage in his career.
