This week's podcast is even more eclectic than usual, taking in armageddon, vampires, the mafia and an off-screen baby, too.
With Jason Solomons away on paternity leave, Xan Brooks contemplates the end of the world with the eco-drama-documentary The Age of Stupid. Director Franny Armstrong tells Xan how she was inspired by Steven Soderbergh's Traffic for the structure of her film, and how she persuaded Pete Postlethwaite to appear in it.
Just before he went, Jason caught up with Gavin and Stacey's James Corden and Mathew Horne to discuss their buddy-movie-horror-caper Lesbian Vampire Killers and camping it up in the best British tradition.
And finally, Peter Bradshaw joins Xan to cast their critical eyes over the latest releases. Up for scrutiny are Duplicity, the slick, cerebral, quadruple-crossing comedy with Julia Roberts and Clive Owen; the huge American hit Paul Blart: Mall Cop; and Il Divo, Paulo Sorrentino's fascinating biopic of the former Italian prime minister Giulio Andreotti.
