This week's episode of the podcast features Sebastian Stan and Renate Reinsve, the stars of Cristian Mungiu's thought-provoking drama Fjord, sitting down on Zoom with Chris Hewitt. They discussed working with Cristian Mungiu, their toughest days on set, and, in Sebastian Stan's case, speaking with a Romanian accent for the first time in a very long time. Alongside this main conversation, Chris is joined in the booth by James Dyer, Beth Webb, and Helen O'Hara, who explained to the team how she became involved with Cunk On Cinema, which is currently broadcasting on the BBC.

The team also spent time discussing their favourite Sylvester Stallone moments and tackling an impromptu Stallone quiz. They covered the week's biggest movie news, including James Gunn stepping down at DC Studios and the continued delay in casting the next James Bond. Furthermore, the episode featured reviews for several major titles, including Fjord, How To Rob A Bank, Being Heumann, Prima Facie, and Ebenezer.
