Pilot TV Podcast #302: Slow Horses, Colin From Accounts, The Tower ft. Gary Oldman And Eve Hewson

Are You Ready For It? This week on the Pilot TV Podcast, James Dyer returns from his holidays (no Cruel Summer there, then) after a Fortnight away to wax lyrical about Taylor Swift's Eras Tour and talk all things TV with co-Pilots Kay Ribeiro and Boyd Hilton — and there's A LOT to talk about! It's a double interview ep this week as we sent our very own Boyd to talk to The Man himself, Gary Oldman — aka Jackson Lamb — about Season 4 of Apple TV's Slough House spy craft series Slow Horses [22:45 — 32:05 approx]. Then, Kay talks (im)perfect lives, Nicole Kidman, being Enchanted by Liev Schreiber's dance moves, and the importance of sleep with Eve Hewson, who stars in Netflix's buzzy new mystery series The Perfect Couple [42:20 — 1:00:00 approx].

Either side of those interviews, the pod squad catch up on what they've been watching this week (namely The Rings Of Power and, er, Riverdale), tackle a Delicate Mount Rushmore listener question on sad moments in otherwise full-on comedy series (yes, Blackadder rightfully does dominate that discussion), and get stuck into a big ol' week for TV news. Among the headlines the team tackle are Season 2 news for Apple TV sci-fi series Dark Matter and Peter Capaldi crime thriller Criminal Record, as well as Netflix political thriller The Diplomat; the reportedly in-the-works return of Ted Lasso; and Aubrey Plaza's incredible reason for having not seen The White Lotus despite starring in it! Then, on the reviews front, James, Kay, and Boyd get stuck into the aforementioned Slow Horses Season 4, Australian comedy phenomenon Colin From Accounts' hotly anticipated second series, and the return of ITV police procedural The Tower. Phew! Long Live the Pilot TV Podcast, which we know All Too Well is the place to be for all things Peak TV.
