I was interviewed by Kristin on 25 September to talk about the upcoming release of I Swear, the story of John Davidson who grew up in Scotland in the 1980s and 1990s with Tourette Syndrome. The film charts his battle with prejudice, ostracism and misunderstanding, and is one of the best films I have seen this year. Kristin and I also talk about the use of filming locations in Kent, including how the pier in Herne Bay has been used as a stand-in for Cape Cod, Massachusetts, in an episode of Black Mirror.

‘Deaf’ is a moving and intoxicating Spanish film that explores disability from multiple perspectives. At its centre is Ángela, a deaf woman who has lived her entire life with the condition and who fears – subconsciously if not overtly – that her child may also be born deaf. When her daughter is born hearing, Ángela’s world shifts in unexpected ways. Her husband Héctor gradually redirects his attention and affection toward the child, leaving Ángela feeling increasingly isolated and marginalized....

There’s a strong sense of wartime camaraderie in ‘Passport to Pimlico’, even though it was made just after the war. The film carries a nostalgic longing for the days of rationing and collective effort, as though the hardships of the past also provided a sense of purpose and unity. The story begins when the residents of Pimlico discover that, thanks to a historical quirk, their district actually belongs to the ancient Duchy of Burgundy....

‘Islands’ feels like a blend of Hitchcock, Patricia Highsmith, and ‘Columbo’: part thriller, part character study, with an enigmatic, washed-out protagonist at its centre. Tom (Sam Riley) is a tennis pro at a Canary Islands resort, a man drifting through life as if on permanent vacation. He has no partner, no children, and fills the void with s*x, drugs, and alcohol....

On tonight's show, I spoke to Isabelle Miller about the relationship between book and film adaptations, with a focus on Stephen King's The Long Walk and the forthcoming adaptation of Wuthering Heights. We also talk about the challenges of turning books into films, and finish by looking at whether the latest The Conjuring and Downton Abbey films might be worth visiting.

We move into the 1930s for this final outing, with Maggie Smith’s Countess Violet lingering ghost-like over the proceedings as the Crawley family recognise that change is inevitable. The film wears its valedictory nature openly: it is a farewell, both for the characters and for the audience. At its heart, this is a classic upstairs–downstairs tale. Lady Mary (Michelle Dockery) provides the central scandal: newly divorced, she hosts a party that sparks whispers of impropriety, and even engages in what is effectively a one-night stand with a near stranger....
