Welcome to 2022, dear listener out there! We hope you had a wonderful New Year’s Eve! Join us today for our LIVE recording from AFM: Giles Alderson and co-host Ian Sharp chatted with the brilliant writer-producer Gemma Hurley & the fantastic writer-director-producer, Jed Shepherd. You might know them from the horror-hit of 2020, Host.
Both of them have been on the podcast before, but today they talk all about how a movie actually comes about. Where do good ideas come from? They discuss the difference between writing alone and writing together, what a successful collaboration looks like, and where to take your script once you’ve written it. They talk about pitching, tips on how to get a meeting, treatments, mentors & answer some of the audience’s lovely questions.
We had a lot of fun recording this one last November. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy this week’s episode “live” from AFM with Gemma Hurley & Jed Shepherd.

Today on the show, Giles Alderson welcomes the fantastic team behind Krays – Code of Silence (2021), produced by our co-host Lucinda Rhodes Thakrar, director Ben Mole & screenwriter Luke Bailey.
Together, they dive deep into the making of the feature film about the Krays and give an honest look at the writer-director-producer relationship and its dynamic in the different stages of production.
Luke talks all about his writing process, how he worked with Ben, why writing a treatment is important & how he writes dialogue. Ben, on the other hand, talks about working with actors, his cast, directing techniques, transitions, and why performance is more important than effects. And lastly, Lucinda discusses pre-production, bringing the team together, and why this is the movie she’s most proud of.
This is a masterclass on how to make an indie film. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy this week’s episode with Ben Mole, Luke Bailey & Lucinda Rhodes Thakrar.
KRAYS – CODE OF SILENCE is out NOW!
1960s London. Hemlines are up, The Beatles are on the radio and crime is at the highest level on record. Detective Nipper Read is tasked with the impossible mission of bringing the city back to the rule of law. As he faces bent cops, political backstabbing, and terrified witnesses, he becomes increasingly obsessed with breaking the code of silence. He will push the rules, his moral compass, and his own sense of who he is, to the breaking point. The true story of the price paid by the man who caught the Kray twins.

Today, in this special episode, Dom Lenoir welcomes the wonderful actress Alice Eve to chat about her latest film Si-Fi feature film Warning (2021), which is out now! She is known for films like Men in Black 3 (2012), Star Trek: Into Darkness (2013), She’s out of my League (2010), Bombshell (2019), and The Stolen (2017), to name a few.
Dom and Alice sat down to talk about the deeper themes of Warning and Si-Fi as a reflection on current issues. Alice also discusses downtime between projects, how directors should approach actors, and why a good script is important.
And because we didn’t have that much time to talk to Alice, Dom and Giles Alderson sat down together after the interview for a relaxed chat about the ups and downs of today’s filmmaking world.
Two lovely conversations in one bonus episode! You don’t want to miss this. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy this week’s episode with Alice Eve.
