Previous Episode

Fool me Once, The Holdovers, Bob's Burgers and Paradox Killer

Steven has been to the cinema this week to see The Holdovers and it's all good pretty much, bar the length. Benji has been checking out new multilingual Apple TV+ production, Drops of God. Succession meets Sideways meets manga - kind of.

Kelly has loads to divulge since she's been away for a couple of weeks but focuses her energy on praise for The Traitors and frustration with Fool Me Once. She also gives an honorable mention to American Nightmare on Netflix.

On the 'deep dive' Steven tells us about South Korean dark comedy Paradox Killer and Benji takes us 'back to the future' with Bob's Burgers, grown-up animation that continues to give.

Next Episode

BAFTA Analysis, chats with Line of Duty's Martin Compston and Phil McHugh, Zone of Interest and more

On this episode of Screen Babble the team are bursting with views on everything that has been going down TV and streaming wise. First up Steven tells us about Zone of Interest which he saw at the cinema. Nominated for multiple awards at this year's Oscars and having picked up a BAFTA this week it's certainly one to check out. Hear Steven's thoughts on why it's so powerful.

Benji talks us through the BAFTAs from big wins, to firsts and stage invaders - so much to talk about it could take up a whole episode on its own.

Excitingly, Kelly met up with everyone's favourite not-bent TV copper Martin Compston and his pal Phil McHugh who have a brand new series out on BBC this week Martin Compston's Norwegian Fling. Kelly asks them about what they got up to and looks for an update on new Line of Duty.

On the deep dive this week, Benji explores the world of Avatar: The Last Airbender, a new Netflix adaptation.

Steven takes you back to the future with a very early 2000s Friends UK alternative - Coupling. All of which is available on BBC iPlayer.

Enjoy.
