It’s a return visit from Such Brave Girls’ Kat Sadler for a short and sweet Ali Plumb’s film club while he shakes off the jet lag from his trip to Japan. Kat’s choice for everyone’s favourite on and off film club? National Treasure. As in, Nic Cage and Sean Bean and puzzles and stealing the declaration of Independence. It’s better than you remember, honest.

It’s been a short while since Denis Villeneuve took us all on a return trip to Arrakis, but with Dune: Part Two starting up its home entertainment release, Ali and his fellow Frank Herbert aficionados Clarisse Loughrey and Steffan Powell decided now was the time to really dig into what happened with Paul and Chani and the rest of the epic sci-fi sequel’s much-loved (and oh-so-complicated) characters. Expect spoilerific and highly nerdy chat on everything from the score to, well, the very final shot. So… if you haven’t seen the movie yet, maybe now’s a good time?

Such Brave Girls: the darker-than-dark BBC 3 sitcom that hopefully you’ve seen already… but then again, if you haven’t yet, that’s okay too because you’re really in for a treat. Ali’s such a fan he’s invited the star and creator, Kat Sadler, onto the podcast for a special conversation about how the programme came together. So as you may have guessed, hop to iPlayer to catch up first, whydoncha?

Fallout has landed - all eight episodes of it - and with it comes some interviews with BBC Radio 1's answer to "The Ghoul", Ali Plumb, as Ella Purnell, Aaron Moten, Kyle MacLachlan, Walton Goggins and more sit down to try and make sense of the post-apocalypse. Plus, a quick round-up of the biggest blockbuster news stories of the past couple of weeks, including the MONSTER trailers that have landed lately. Yep, Joker, we're looking at you here.

You're a big fan of Dev Patel, of course you are. As is Jordan Peele, as is our Ali. So join us as we learn what trials and tribulations he endured and magnificently overcame in the process of putting together his directorial debut, the gritty action thriller Monkey Man on this here podcast. Spoiler alert: it's safe to say the bone-breaking struggle that was the Monkey Man production has finally paid off, with happy critics comparing it to John Wick as it hits cinemas square in the jaw this weekend. Plus! Ali reminds us what new movies have landed on the biggest streaming services in the UK, including BBC iPlayers amazing film section...

While Ali's been poorly of late, we're not going to let you down podcast-wise, no no no - so here are some Poor Things interviews we didn't include on Screen Time back when the film was first released in the UK back in January. And it's perfect timing (sort of) with the film now on streaming, so it's almost as if we planned it, eh? Plus: have you heard about Robot Dreams? It's this adorable and wonderful and thoroughly excellent animation Ali's very keen on, check it out, go on.

Lots of exclamations in the title there, apologies - but then again, when you've got acting talent like this lot on your podcast, maybe a few exclamations can be forgiven. This week we have a slightly poorly Ali as he wraps up the past seven day's biggest news headlines, chucks out a few TV recommendations and then presses play on a couple of interviews in honour Ghostbusters Frozen Empire (Ernie Hudson and McKenna Grace) and then Netflix's new sci-fi show 3 Body Problem (Benedict Wong and John Bradley). It's a bumper week, that's for sure.

Friend of the show and casually very funny man Ben Schwartz - also known to some as Parks and Rec’s Jean-Ralphio, the voice of Sonic The Hedgehog and an improv artist extraordinaire - joins Ali this week to talk about the Oscars, how to pull jokes out of thin air and the classic of classics that is Back To The Future for a very special edition of Ali Plumb’s Film Club.

After a bit of news, a few recommendations for what you might want to watch this weekend - Dune Part Two is in cinemas too, let's not forget - a little later on in the podcast you’ll hear from two human beings who are in Guy Ritchie’s new Netflix show, The Gentlemen, namely old friend of the show (sort of, you’ll see) Kaya Scodelario and new friend of the show (go on, let’s say he is, why not?) Theo James. Just before you press play, ask yourself this question: Lock, Stock or Snatch? It's a tricky one to answer, now ain't it?

Today we have a podcast of two halves: one half is a spoiler-free review of the long-awaited, eagerly anticipated Dune Part Two, the second part of Denis Villeneuve’s adaptation of the classic Frank Herbert sci-fi novel, with friend of the show and Independent film critic in chief (and die-hard self-professed “Dunehead”) Clarisse Loughrey joining Ali for an extensive chat. The other half is a conversation with charming up and comer Nicholas Galitzine in honour of his new Sky historical drama Mary And George, where he plays James I's court favourite George Villiers, aided by his Machiavellian mother, portrayed by one Julianne Moore. Please enjoy both halves, we insist!

A podcast of two halves for you this week as Ali reacts to some of the biggest movies and TV news stories of the past seven days - including the winners at the BAFTAs, but of course - then things get really rather silly as Olivia Colman and Jessie Buckley talk about their new (and incredibly sweary) film, Wicked Little Letters, a movie about incredibly adult language that requires incredibly adult language to discuss. So it's moderately serious (ish) to begin with as the news is laid out for you and the BAFTAs are appreciated... and then things go off the rails immediately as Olivia, Jessie and Ali lose the plot straight away. Humorously, we like to think.
