With Chris Hemsworth announcing the Oscar nominations on behalf of the Academy yesterday, this week's Empire Podcast is chock-full of awards-based chit-chat. So if you want to be in the know about who's (probably) going to win, listen no further.
Elsewhere, the team talks to James Purefoy about Noel Edmunds, Mr. Blobby and Season 2 of The Following, while Juliette Lewis takes the time to talk August: Osage County and, um,** National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation**.
Reviewed: The Wolf Of Wall Street, Tim's Vermeer and Devil's Due. Discussed: foody films and movies that "Shawshank" you. It'll make sense soon enough, promise.
