It's a studio with a load of chairs a bunch of paper your big baggy scarf and a lot of those scarves 8505 and it takes me a b.b.c. Don't communicate in tweeters at which attainment. Interesting couple of e-mails here you are right by the way I'm looking at the monitor and it wasn't. Jones is on it it's connected to a different cheater. Always tries to muscle in on so it's technology for tech correspondent can he can even make these things happen to him in the lift did yeah and he said what you're viewing us all in. Great and it don't you have got an email here from remeasuring in 10000 well him like number one comedian guy. Is him off the telly I know who he is meeting guy yeah it was the easy road show anyway the legal lesson he says Dear Maisie and chemical west so that's what we have from now on just pointed out the deed to prison now getting to that oh I see fight well so I don't get into it so can we stop giving Mark too much information what I'm getting in one ear from him in the other if I'm you just remember says promising start I really did Maisie and come and west I'm a medium term church member and one time guest host. Just a quick note to say that the Roland Emmerich riff that ended in this last week ended in Mark saying Mr bombastic but he's not fantastic really made me laugh you made remeasured laugh. They were mean and that's and that's difficult making comedians love is not easy it would have been unjust to allow that thing of beauty to go on acknowledged much love Keep up the fantastic work and the ramp followed by . Another email from a mesh Ranganathan Further to my previous that base joke at the end of the show last week and would like to withdraw my earlier compliment owes the bases joke. Again bassist makes it sound a whole lot worse than a guess what was it her saying go to lunch come back terrible noise from the orchestra pit they from the double bass is beating up the triangle player dragging off say what you doing he says well re at lunch he put up one of my strings ouch in the States no reason to him up he says you want to mooch one criticism and that's funny because because all by strings on the same in all bassist saw the basis and drummers are the bottom of all musicians jokes that they're not really musicians they're just people I think in the strings the viola plan is performs a similar role yet so it's you know it's just the butt of the joke although as a as a bassist I do find that just funny because it is true that somebody could put one of my strings up gentlemen I wouldn't know which one you're slapping your double bass yet really matter which no you just get. Yeah your face did a really funny shape when you did it all Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle face thank you yeah no it's just I had that in my repertoire but you just unspecified walking sound with a general basis down the bottom of his top 10 on the way immediate Clark the other side of the 330 needs talking about last Christmas do you want to start with the issue of the operation well I'll get to it in just a minute because. Yes because it's not in the chart Ok so this is the point is that yes for very various complicated reasons to do with Netflix they don't disclose that box of his figs and I was just reading this from the day in in the in the Telegraph he said. Missing in action in the u.k. Box office is the argument distributor Netflix does not opt to do does not just opt not to disclose viewer numbers on its own string platform it also prevents cinemas from reporting box office on it startles to the official data cover which is why I believe the situation room which means we have no idea how it how well it did and it really apparently in the cinemas in which it's playing there was an audience but but we don't know because they don't disclose those figures which seems in them and I certainly knew that that was the way as far as television is concerned but they actually for bid cinema change from announcing how many tickets they've sold yet to see foreigners reading from The Telegraph So this is where it also prevents animals from reporting box office on its titles the official day together in the reason reading of The Telegraph is because I believe that to be the case but I also believe that Elvis wasn't dead for many years that I just do I look it up to get a valid you know validated source. Obviously people have been to see it and an email from Agent cultural voice I don't know if he's any relation of Frank's But you know. Whether he is or whether he isn't he's welcome to the show Aiden says yes I believe this to be Scorsese's most humane work to date for me the kernel of the film is the scene that takes place at Sharon's testimonial dinner in this see we watch as an entire world falls apart inside a room as informants the Fireman's Ball The epic and the claustrophobic are mystically intertwined that scene alone I believe is sufficient for this film to be called a masterpiece Well well I would say that even if Aiden isn't related to Frank he could well be because that sound right might say enough actually but I want as you go exactly that's what I would think because that was very good I was very good and very That sounds like somebody who has a writer's sensibility but if this is this is a very uncomfortable future because it is quite good to know what how well something is doing well no man may I play devil's advocate for a 2nd meaning say something I don't necessarily believe in but it just occurred to me I know what devil's advocate means no I'm saying it to myself Ok sort of to you know I'm talking to the listener Ok fine. There is an argument that knowing about box office figures does nobody any good whatsoever and certainly I have been guilty of saying you know the world has changed since we can all go on the Internet and know that something opened on Friday and by Saturday have underperformed Now I'm not saying that that's an argument for saying is the argument about knowing about box office figures is not necessarily a scenario as it seems a dart yet but I've been thinking quite a lot recently about the greatest showman Yeah reasons that we can come to later on well I guess you know exactly and that and thinking Ok so you go and see it and you thinking I formed an opinion and then you look and then you start placing how much money it took me thinking Ok Well clearly I'm wrong though that is absolutely right and I'm also very aware having gone back to see the great show my sort in press screening in which I thought it was really bad and I went to see it at a screening at the plaza in Truro which was a full screening with a largely young team. Young adult audience all of whom knew or all of it off by heart and it demonstrated absolutely point blank that my claim that it did not have a memorable chain in it was factually absolutely and totally wrong so we'll be revisiting opinions like that a little bit later exactly in the program so folks I was top 10. And we got lucky correspondents as well and I just wanted to mention this from Colin Tonkin Ok says Is it wrong that whenever I hear lobby correspondent I have fines in my head saying take your money lobby boy in my head. Which I hadn't really thought of. But I shall now here again yes I have no idea who can take your definitely not be boy. Ok well that was the lobby correspondents will be will be out in coming any weight at box office top 10 at 17 Lou Sutter was terrific Not least because I think it's got a great score by just Baron been so brave but it's really intriguing psychological thriller which wrong for the audience at every possible turn and I've read some of slightly sniffy reviews which I was surprised about because I found it very interesting very intriguing and I had no idea it was going it is based on a stage play there are moments of it a quite stately but I think the score does an awful lot into a sort of fully cinematic experience and I really liked it and we have a lovely correspondent on Lucy we go and it was interesting on the themes of race and I like the fact that it's the main rival Harry is really anyone's they seem to share commonality of experience. We Need To Talk About Kevin was very strong and I liked how it was from the perspective of parents and you were always away from the only information that the kids were holding Solomon and on that lobby correspondents that recording from the Rio cinema with no playing in the back row yet little bit long I'd say but maybe you know there's 2 of them and it still. Yeah but 2 of them and a piano playing in the back read a little bit too long I think look at Scorsese they're little bit really big and just pull it back. So therefore next week we won't be telling people how many people listen to that. Number 10 is abominable which is or 9 is Sean the sheep farm again now a couple of things on that yeah as you say those 2 movies next door to each other in the chart one of the other one I love love love love love Mike in the Forest of Dean can mark explain why on Shawn the sheep farmer Gaden certificate it says contains mild bad language I can't off the top of my head but I will if you carry on I will look it up they must be it must be that it will either be something will either be written somewhere or the farmer will say sorry and in an innuendo or something when we look it up I mean I confess that I didn't know that but I will look it up going while your trying it out an email from carried to Linnaeus did Buster and Charlie I recently moved and I do believe carry has email before because I remember. Kerry sending in phonetic punctuation right before so Kerry thank you very much for making it easier I've got it there is the very mean very mild use of bad language damn apparently the word damn appears although this is there is technically no real language it must be very very you know yeah you know I think you're probably Ok Mike in the middle it also says slightly consider is rude human when an alien lets out a loud burp Ok fine so I think it's really his life you carry to Linnaeus says I recently moved back to my native country of Iceland with my wife who's Finnish and our 2 children child one who is 4 has had frustrations with reaching the same fluency with spoken Icelandic as he has in Finnish jokes and will Wordplay which delight him in Finnish land slowly fame in Icelandic though he is improving at a fast rate Icelandic notoriously difficult to learn I'd been thinking it was time to introduce him to the delights of going to the cinema but was worried that a dialogue heavy film would be frustrating for him it's no fun after all being the only person not laughing in a theatre So Shaun the Sheep Farmageddon was a godsend good physical comedy transcends language and goes straight for the emotions it does jokes in Farmageddon absolutely landed for both him and me and the story of a young child in a Strange Land tugged at both sets of heartstrings when I asked him at the end of the film what he liked best he referenced the emotional bit at the end of that spoiler free there when his mother asked him the same question when we got home he said it was when quotes they went really fast which I hope is a ball of return and then a mind said scene at length with sound effects it's I'm glad that the legacy of silent comedy still being honored by brilliant studios like adman and that I could introduce my son to the joys of film going with such a wonderful picture there's a fantastic he can take it presumably in Iceland you can take your large Finnish educated child and enjoy a film made by a woman and that's what the southwest of that is what I mean about you know silence animal be. You know having the universal language of film because with the exception of which it's occurred to me that when the word may appear on maybe a newspaper or something but basically you know film is a universal language I would hate this I've said it many times before Mike Figgis once said that he was most impressed by the fact that when immigrants used to arrive in America they arrived at Ellis Island where they were shown a silent film which would describe for them life in the country to which they were arriving and would be understandable by audiences of all races and cultures regardless of language that is the universal language of cinema and of slapstick comedy is a real one and a treasure and incidentally if you really enjoyed that you know go back and look at some of the early chap and I'm sure you have done that show your kids the early Chaplin's you know the Tetons or something because they will love them as well Shaun the Sheep farm again is that 9 duck to sleep is that 8 much better than we had any right to expect much more Stephen King than Stanley Kubrick although there are obviously many many references to the corporate movie which it does mix those into the general but I liked it very much and and I had been very trepidations about it beforehand but I thought it was actually a pretty solid pretty pretty solid thriller in Robinson on an e-mail which side of the debate not leaver remain rather a coup break Ok I have to admit to not being Mr King's biggest fan and always love Kubrick's The Shining But along came dot dot dot dot Dr Sleep Dan you came out a man and glorious to fan any fans hoping for a tense return to the madness of the Overlook Hotel maybe somewhat disappointed my advice expect a story that is a little more concerned with character and one which rather cleverly manages to harness Kubrick's dark heart as well as the ghosts of Danny Torrance has passed the splendidly named Lloyd manif and in Exeter regarding the equally splendidly named Tom Chris to deliver email last week about his friend Lloyd's experience watching the shining and being perturbed. The moment Jack Torrance looks directly down the camera to say Hi Lloyd. As a Lloyd myself says Lloyd management I can confirm the terror that this scene did inflict upon Lloyd's on my 1st viewing of the shining after this scene I slowly turned to my brother obviously not Lloyd and tentatively asked what name did he say to you just check the film wasn't cast I've always felt this direct address has heightened my connection with the shining and wondered if any of the church members had similar experiences with their own names in film Ok if so b.b.c. Took the u.k. Military very quickly a short creepy story how short is your show and keep it 30 seconds because I think e.v.p. Electronic voice phenomenon which is listening to recorded tapes to see if you can hear the voices of the dead Ok And it's to do with the bison is new is a fun I think it's a do with your mind imposing sound anyway blah blah blah many years ago I was sitting with Bill Blatty listening to some tapes that he had made around the time of making the Exorcist and there were these fragments of sound that he had identified as being identifiable speech and he said and there's one thing here I've never been able to understand what it is and he played it to me and I was sitting in his front room we both of these headphones on and I heard clear as a bell a voice a marker mode now I know that's not what it said but it sounded and once you know what once I'd heard it saying that nearly jumped out of my skin I viewed heard it you would have heard it saying on my own it's just you know it's a it's an audio hallucination thing but I nearly jumped out of my skin s. Really creepy is. Ok Where were you distracted terminated on face 7 I wish I liked it more we've had many very spirited defenses of it and and I am glad that people are getting more out of it than I did Midway is a new entry in the same. Midway as midway in the top 10 it is a film which includes the line men like Dick best of the reason we're going to win this war and that's one of the more understated mates it's a film which left me longing for the careful character. Development of Michael Bay's Pearl Harbor j. Perry writing from pilots pulpit in our South Sea Parish very good to Melissa sent and 1000000 less and so when is it Ok to leave a cinema for films rubbish Roland Emmerich answer the question for us midway. Very good Simon Eagleton if you think you're watching Midway don't spend your time and money elsewhere including but not limited to anywhere else dialogue and acting would be laughably bad if you just paid to see it is crying and screaming Yes Well you know who I think is actually a really good actor and I like him very much he's atrocious and his. New York accent beyond rubbish Oh yes you know he's fold the dialogue is terrible I'm simply amazed he was given a lead role in such a large 100 plus 1000000 I don't know I think he's actually a very good screen presence I mean he's much more and we you know he can do America just that that character is he's an American pilot and he's choose gum the movie has no physicality to it as it is 85 percent cd generated and of course every fader on the mixing desk is set to 11 during the airborne and dive bombing sequences to try and compensate Gerry Ryan a long term intimate listener 1st time email I went to Midway last Wednesday with my wife here in Dallas and in northeast China and in a wonderfully code compliant cinema we watched a total lemon of a movie that's a phrase that's not used in I know a lemon I'm sure my dad used to say you know even my gran used to say I feel a complete lemon all this car is a lemon as Mark described it's awful cliched in every aspect woeful script caricature is rather the characters intrusive 1950 s. Use of score far from show didn't tell for the 2nd half of the movie I played the game of mentally deleting any unnecessary lines of dialogue there is always about 50 percent. Keep up the good
