    14. Clemency Burton-Hill: Author, Broadcaster and Musician

    In another themed episode, Antonia explores the world of movie scores and soundtracks with broadcaster, novelist and classical musician, Clemency Burton-Hill as she recounts her favourite memories from the world of film music.

    Clemency is a strong believer that classical music is not an elitist past time, and should be accessible for all - and that film scores are a fantastic way of bridging the gap. She has faced backlash in the past for her views, but Clemency stands strong to her inclusive beliefs.

    8. Corrina Antrobus: Founder/Director of the Bechdel Test Fest

    On International Women's Day, take a second to ask yourself - do the films you love pass the almighty Bechdel Test? In order to pass, The Bechdel Test asks that a film or piece of fiction features at least two female characters that interact with each other without mentioning a man. That seems simple enough, you might think? It’s actually much rarer than you imagine. Founder of the UK’s Bechdel Test Fest, Corrina Antrobus, sheds light on what drove her to set up her own film festival as she reveals her top three favourite movies... ...but do they pass the test too? Featured films: Moonlight (2016, Barry Jenkins)

    Broadcast News (1987, James L Brookes)

    Set It Off (1996, F. Garry Gray)
