The Cast of Downton Abbey, Seann William Scott, the cast of Lynley AND Tim Blake Nelson?? That's whose on this episode of Pop Culture Weekly with Kyle McMahon. What happens when a classic detective story gets a modern twist? British actors Leo Suter and Sophia Barclay join me to uncover the magic behind their new crime drama, "Lynley".

He shares his candid thoughts on returning to his iconic role and the evolving landscape of Hollywood comedies. Listen in as Seann recounts surreal moments from his early career and the lessons he's learned from meeting his idols.Finally, we bid a heartfelt goodbye to an aristocratic saga that captured hearts worldwide.

047 - The long Walk, Dir. Francis Lawrence  The Long Walk is a dystopian, post modern Civil War America.  Every year each state is represented by a young boy who walks for the grand prize of whatever they want.  The cost of victory?  The other 49 have to be dead.  There s no finish line and no breaks.  To fall behind or stop is to be killed.   Par the corse for Stephen King.  Mark Hamill (The Major) plays his part beautifully as the guy we love to hate. Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale (timecode below) finds Lady Mary Talbot and family a year into The Great Depression and rocked with a scandal.  It's ore of what we've come to love about the show- excellent writing, brilliant performances, and an old world English charm that keeps us coming back for more.  If you're a fan of Downton Abbey, this one will put a smile on your face. 0:00:00 - Introductions and Banter 0:08:30 - Box Office  0:11:15  - The Best Toy Story Movie? 0:18:50 - Movie Recommendation- The Road, Dir.

We're here to provide a little distraction -- and a positive online community during these weird times -- with the latest episode of our Breakfast All Day podcast. Our first movie isn't exactly escapist fun, though: "The Long Walk," which is one of the better Stephen King adaptations. It's beautifully written and acted but also harrowing to watch, especially now. This may not be the best week to see people getting shot in the head, but this movie is really good otherwise. In theaters. Next up, it's "Spinal Tap II: The End Continues," the painfully unfunny sequel to the 1984 comedy classic "This Is Spinal Tap." It would be impossible to match the brilliance of a movie that invented an entire genre, but this one really doesn't. Rob Reiner, Michael McKean, Christopher Guest and Harry Shearer are all back, along with some major celebrity cameos. In theaters. If you're looking for elegant pleasures, we have "Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale." Everyone's lives are in flux in 1930s England, but they look great doing it. And despite their financial woes, they find time to get gussied up for the horse races at Ascot. This tidies up all the stories in satisfying fashion. In theaters. Finally, a lengthy Movie News LIVE!: Early reactions to "One Battle After Another," Emmy Awards on Sunday, "Big Little Lies" season 3 and much more. We tried to keep the politics to a minimum but dipped into some entertainment-adjacent items toward the end. Join us every Friday at Noon Pacific. Thanks for all you do for our community! Subscribe to Christy's Saturday Matinee newsletter: https://christylemire.beehiiv.com/ Come hang out with us before a showing of "One Battle After Another"!

As the new feature film Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale opens worldwide, we see for the final time the elegant, glamorous and always dramatic world of Lord and Lady Grantham and their family.  We also have a chance to look back at the evolving fashion and hairstyles of Downton's characters as they have evolved from the series debut set in 1912 up to this final film set in 1930.  Joining The Gilded Gentleman table to trace this fashion history is listener favorite Dr. Elizabeth L. Block, who takes us from the high Edwardian style we saw with Violet, the Dowager Countess, to the body hugging slinky styles of Coco Chanel we see on Lady Mary in this latest film. We also explore the flapper look, the influence of war years on fashion and how the great cultural forces such as the Ballets Russes all influence the styles of the Crawley sisters. And we even take a look downstairs and talk about how styles for domestic staff were shifting as well. This episode was produced and edited by Kieran Gannon.

Var tar pulsen på hur tjänarna i stormaktstidsadelns tjänst hade det. Ny forskning ger perspektiv på kommande avslutningen av Downton Abbey-serien. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Nu avslutas superpopulära serien om Downton Abbey där brittiskt herrskapsfolk och deras tjänare skildras under det tidiga 1900-talet. Tobias och Urban pratar om hur det kan komma sig att Downton Abbey blivit så populärt i vår tid och hur den verkliga historien på slottet som skildras i serien kan ha sett ut.Dessutom tar vi pulsen på stormaktstidens tjänstefolk. Historikerna Anna Nilsson Hammar och Svante Norrhem har undersökt hur tjänarstaben runt förmögna familjen de la Gardie slet och gnetade, men också hur de hävdade sina rättigheter och satte greven på plats i 1600-talets adelspalats.Och så reder Dick Harrison ut varför vi kallar perioden för just stormaktstiden. Är det egentligen ett särskilt lämpligt begrepp för epoken som präglades av krig och armod?

Minister stapt op na belastingschandaal en wie is Zack 'Green Party' Polanski?

Net toen Keir Starmer dacht dat hij met een nieuwe intentieverklaring -wij zijn vergeten de hoeveelste dit was- de boel kon herpakken, zag de Britse premier vorige week een van zijn ministeriele kopstukken aftreden vanwege een schandaal. Een crisis die Starmer probeerde af te wenden met haastige kabinetswisselingen en nieuwe benoemingen. Maar de vraag is of deze nieuwe misère het al zeer gehavende imago van Labour niet nog meer gezichtsverlies oplevert. We blijven in de politiek, maar maken een uitstapje naar links: De nieuwe leider Zack Polanski van The Green Party heeft de pittige uitdaging om de populariteit van Farage en zijn Reform partij in te dammen. Hij won de interne verkiezingen om het leiderschap met glans en heeft een ding direct duidelijk gemaakt aan de regerende Labour Partij: "Wij zijn hier om jullie te vervangen". Ook in deze aflevering Hoe brei je een passend einde aan een van de meest iconische televisie- en filmseries uit de Britse geschiedenis? Met een slotfilm die morgen uitkomt, waarin met een groot, meeslepend en dramatisch schandaal valt het doek voor het immens populaire Downton Abbey. Over Van Bekhovens Britten In van Bekhovens Britten praten Lia van Bekhoven en Connor Clerx elke week over de grootste nieuwsonderwerpen en de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Van Brexit naar binnenlandse politiek, van de Royals tot de tabloids. Waarom fascineert het VK Nederlanders meer dan zo veel andere Europese landen? Welke rol speelt het vooralsnog Verenigd Koninkrijk in Europa, nu het woord Brexit uit het Britse leven lijkt verbannen, maar de gevolgen van de beslissing om uit de EU te stappen iedere dag duidelijker worden? De Britse monarchie, en daarmee de staat, staat voor grote veranderingen na de dood van Queen Elisabeth en de kroning van haar zoon Charles. De populariteit van het Koningshuis staat op een dieptepunt. Hoe verandert de Britse monarchie onder koning Charles, en welke gevolgen heeft dat voor de Gemenebest? In Van Bekhovens Britten analyseren Lia en Connor een Koninkrijk met tanende welvaart, invloed en macht. De Conservatieve Partij leverde veertien jaar op rij de premier, maar nu heeft Labour onder Keir Starmer de teugels in handen. Hoe ziet het VK er onder Keir Starmer uit? En hoe gaan de ‘gewone’ Britten, voor zover die bestaan, daar mee om? Al deze vragen en meer komen aan bod in Van Bekhovens Britten. Een kritische blik op het Verenigd Koninkrijk, waar het een race tussen Noord-Ierland en Schotland lijkt te worden wie zich het eerst af kan scheiden van het VK. Hoe lang blijft het Koninkrijk verenigd? Na ruim 45 jaar onder de Britten heeft Lia van Bekhoven een unieke kijk op het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Als inwoner, maar zeker geen anglofiel, heeft ze een scherpe blik op het nieuws, de politiek, de monarchie en het dagelijkse leven aan de overkant van de Noordzee. Elke woensdag krijg je een nieuwe podcast over het leven van Van Bekhovens Britten in je podcastapp. Scherpe analyses, diepgang waar op de radio geen tijd voor is en een flinke portie humor. Abonneer en mis geen aflevering. Over Lia Lia van Bekhoven is correspondent Verenigd Koninkrijk voor onder andere BNR Nieuwsradio, VRT, Knack en Elsevier en is regelmatig in talkshows te zien als duider van het nieuws uit het VK.
