This week's Pilot TV Podcast finds the team without an in-person Kay Ribeiro once again, so the keeper of the postbag beams into the studio and onto the airwaves instead for another manic episode as she, James and Boyd discuss everything from Boyd’s new foray into the world of video influencers to Kay’s poolside celebrity encounters. The pod squad also tackle a listener question on shows that took them a some perseverance to get into; get stuck into a busy week of telly news that's seen Mobland renewed for Season 2, a Very Young Frankenstein series spun off from Mel Brooks' comedy classic get the green light, new shows from both the W1A team and The English creator-actor-writer extraordinaire Hugo Blick; and finally discover why the show Beth is called Beth.
And that's not all, folks! We’re also joined on the show this week by Such Brave Girls creator/star Kat Sadler (31:25 — 50:35 approx), as we tackle that show’s second season, plus — in a bumper review episode — we're diving back into Squid Game on Netflix, The Bear on Disney+, and Aussie crime thriller Scrublands on BBC2. You lucky lot! Please do enjoy.
