The Grand Knockout Tournament (also known as It's a Royal Knockout) was a one-off charity event first shown on BBC1 on 19th June 1987, to an audience of 18 million gobsmacked viewers.  The brainchild of the then 23 year old Prince Edward, the slapstick spectacle featured the Princess Royal and the Duke and Duchess of York captaining rival teams in a series of preposterous rounds involving celebrities including Rowan Atkinson, Tom Jones, Cliff Richard, John Travolta and Les Dawson. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly recall Fergie's feelings of shame, blame and betrayal; discover the extraordinary cast of characters gathered at this bizarre occasion; and explain why Meat Loaf and Prince Andrew did not see eye-to-eye… Further Reading: • ‘Remembering The TV Disaster That Was It's A Royal Knockout' (Grazia, 2020): https://graziadaily.co.uk/celebrity/news/royal-knockout-anne-edward-andrew/ • ‘It's a royal cock-up' (The Guardian, 2002): https://www.theguardian.com/media/2002/mar/05/themonarchy.broadcasting • ‘The Grand Knockout Tournament' (BBC, 1987): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwkv0-QlbZY This episode first aired in 2021 Love the show?

It's Die Hard in a bank!This week on DIE HARD ON A BLANK, we plug into SWORDFISH — the slick, post-Matrix cyber-thriller produced by Joel Silver and directed by Dominic Sena. With Hugh Jackman hacking mainframes under extreme duress, John Travolta dropping pseudo-Brechtian monologues, Halle Berry delivering the most famous topless scene of the early 2000s, and Don Cheadle constantly violating people's civil rights, it's a film that dares to ask: does it matter if a movie makes no sense, as long as it's entertaining? We also dig into Swordfish's dense meta-layering and debate the broader question: when is too much meta actually bad for the form? As always we break the film down in detail in our ‘Anatomy of an Action Movie section', hand out some ‘Die Hard Oscars' and wrestle with some ‘Double Jeopardy' brain teasers…heck, there's even a Vinnie Jones impression thrown into the mix for good measure! What more could you possibly want?!

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 16ú lá de mí an Mheithimh, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1978 tháinig sé amach gur chaith daoine sa tír níos mó ná 520 milliún punt ar alcól agus tobac I rith 1976 agus d'ardaigh sé nach mór 87 milliún punt ón bhliain roimhe. I 2000 ní raibh an rialtas ag sheachaint beart níos mó chun na tithe a dhéanamh níos inacmhainne mura n-oibríonn an phacáiste nua. I 1989 bhí daoine ag súil leis an vótáil chun a bheith cóngarach chuig 75%. I 2000 labhair na h-altraí san ospidéal in Inis amach I gcoinne na plean chun aon síciatrach ardslándála a thógáil I Spanish Point. Sin John Travolta agus Olivia Newton John le You're The One That I Want – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1978 Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1972 tháinig David Bowie amach lena 5ú halbam The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars – an coincheap den albam ná chun scéal a rá d'eachtrán darbh ainm Ziggy Stardust. Chuaigh an t-albam chuig uimhir a 5 sa Bhreatain agus uimhir 75 I Meiriceá agus tháinig sé amach go raibh sé an t-albam ab fhearr riamh. I 2002 46 bhliain tar éis a chéad amhrán, chuaigh Elvis Presley chuig uimhir a haon sa Bhreatain lena amhrán Little Less Conversation. Tar éis é sin bhí 18 uimhir a haon aige. Agus chomh maith bhí sé an t-amhránaí a raibh sna cairteacha den chuid is mó I rith 44 bhliain. A chéad uimhir a haon a bhí aige ná All Shook Up I 1957. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Jurgen Klopp sa Ghearmáin I 1967 agus rugadh amhránaí John Newman sa Bhreatain ar an lá seo I 1990 agus seo chud de amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 16th of June, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1978: irish people spent a record of £520m on alchol and tobacco during 1976 which waas an increase of almost £87m. 2000: the government were not shrinking from further action to make houses more affordable if the sweeping package unveiled does not work. 1989: It was expected that there would be a poll close to seventy five percent. 2000: Nurses in our lady hospital in ennis spoke out against plans to develop a high security psychiatric unit at spanish point. That was John Travolta and Olivia Newton John with You're The One That I Want – the biggest song on this day in 1978 Onto music news on this day In 1972 David Bowie released his fifth studio album The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars a concept album telling the story of a fictional bisexual alien rock star named Ziggy Stardust. The album which reached No.5 in the UK and No. 75 in the US has been consistently considered one of the greatest albums of all time. 2002 46 years after his first hit, Elvis Presley started a four week run at No.1 on the UK singles chart with 'A Little Less Conversation', (Elvis vs. JXL), giving Elvis a total of 18 UK No.1 singles, the most by any artist in chart history. This also set a new record for the longest span of No.1 hits with 44 years, 11 months and 9 days. His first UK No.1 single was 'All Shook Up' in 1957. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – soccer coach Jurgen Klopp was born in Germany in 1967 and singer John Newman was born in the UK on this day in 1990 and this is one of his songs.

Per tutti gli amanti della serie tratta dal libro di Roberto Saviano, stanno per arrivare su Sky gli episodi del prequel "Gomorra - Le origini", previsto per l'inizio del 2026. Periodo caldo per l'assegnazione degli Oscar alla carriera: il magazine americano Variety stila un elenco dei personaggi più iconici che, incredibilmente, non hanno mai ricevuto alcuna statuetta e meriterebbero quindi un Oscar Onorario. Per citarne alcuni: John Travolta, John Malkovich, Michelle Pfeiffer, Ridley Scott, Glenn Close, Brian De Palma, Jim Carrey, Harrison Ford e molti, molti altri… Proprio Harrison Ford e le sue interpretazioni più memorabili sono i protagonisti della rubrica "5 cose che non potete non sapere" di questa puntata. Chi invece l'Oscar l'ha vinto è Robert De Niro, presto nuovamente al fianco di Ben Stiller e, per l'occasione, anche di Ariana Grande nel quarto capitolo del film "Ti presento i miei". In chiusura, uno sguardo alle uscite del momento. Per gli amanti del cinema è nelle sale "Ballerina", spin-off di "John Wick" con Ana de Armas mentre, per i pantofolai, i The Jackal tornano su Prime Video con "Pesci Piccoli 2" e Netflix rilancia con "Fubar 2" con Arnold Schwarzenegger, un altro che al momento -quanto ad Oscar- è ancora a bocca asciutta.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Kohl is an acclaimed Director and Cinematographer known for his bold, cinematic storytelling across television, film, and commercials. He's directed and shot over 130 episodes of America's Most Wanted, lensed features for Francis Ford Coppola's American Zoetrope, and worked on major films like Lonely Hearts with John Travolta and Recount for HBO. Mark has also created over 2,000 commercials for top brands including McDonald's, Honda, AT&T, and Carnival Cruise Lines, earning numerous Addy and Telly Awards along the way. But behind the scenes, Mark faced a profound personal battle. At the height of his success, he lost everything to severe depression, anxiety, and alcoholism. His path to healing came through the powerful therapeutic use of Ayahuasca and psilocybin, which opened new dimensions of consciousness and helped him rediscover his purpose. Today, Mark is not only a celebrated DGA director but also the founder of Frequency House, a wellness and consciousness center in Topanga Canyon dedicated to helping others heal through plant medicine, intention, and spiritual connection. His story is one of remarkable transformation, a journey from Hollywood to healing, now inspiring others to awaken to their own potential. We discuss:  How psychedelics strip away illusion and reveal deeper personal and universal truths. Why living with integrity is essential for cultivating love, trust, and self-respect. The power of community in supporting both personal transformation and collective healing. How past trauma can be reframed as preparation for purpose and future alignment. The role of sound, frequency, and group intention in deepening healing and shifting consciousness.

Mark Kohl is an acclaimed Director and Cinematographer known for his bold, cinematic storytelling across television, film, and commercials. He's directed and shot over 130 episodes of America's Most Wanted, lensed features for Francis Ford Coppola's American Zoetrope, and worked on major films like Lonely Hearts with John Travolta and Recount for HBO. Mark has also created over 2,000 commercials for top brands including McDonald's, Honda, AT&T, and Carnival Cruise Lines, earning numerous Addy and Telly Awards along the way. But behind the scenes, Mark faced a profound personal battle. At the height of his success, he lost everything to severe depression, anxiety, and alcoholism. His path to healing came through the powerful therapeutic use of Ayahuasca and psilocybin, which opened new dimensions of consciousness and helped him rediscover his purpose. Today, Mark is not only a celebrated DGA director but also the founder of Frequency House, a wellness and consciousness center in Topanga Canyon dedicated to helping others heal through plant medicine, intention, and spiritual connection. His story is one of remarkable transformation, a journey from Hollywood to healing, now inspiring others to awaken to their own potential. We discuss:  How alcohol and other substances are often used as coping mechanisms for deeper emotional pain. The vital role of consciousness and self-awareness in the recovery and healing journey. Why addiction is more than a physical struggle, it's rooted in loneliness, anxiety, and psychological patterns. How community, spiritual practices like kundalini yoga, and mind-body awareness support long-term transformation. The creative mind's vulnerability to addiction, and how experiences like ayahuasca can offer powerful breakthroughs.

In the 1990s, filmmakers and audiences seemed obsessed with “magic men” who caused chaos in their communities while teaching everyone an important lesson. Some of these men were angels; some of them were just weird little freaks who made a big difference. Some examples of this: POWDER, MEET JOE BLACK, PHENOMENON, and another John Travolta starring film called MICHAEL. MICHAEL is an interesting hybrid magic man/religious film where this “magic man” archetype is also the archangel Michael from the Bible. This device allows the film to be safe-religious while not directly invoking Jesus, a storytelling technique also used by popular Y2K-era television show TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL. In the film, Michael is an angel discovered living in Iowa by tabloid reporters who specialize on documenting unexplained phenomena. When they travel to meet Michael, they find out he is indeed a real angel, but not in the way that most of us would expect to experience one. He is sweet, but with bad manners, and prone to seducing earth women because he's very interested in sex with them. Michael also introduces new rules of angel encounters on earth: for instance, angels are only allowed to visit earth 26 times and they can only perform small miracles. Inventing fake angel tropes outside of the Bible is a very common device of these safe religious 90s films, usually used to tie up plot continuity issues. In the end, Michael's secret mission is to unite the characters Frank (played by William Hurt) and Dorothy (played by Andie MacDowell) in a romantic love they will treasure forever. Although it's a sweet but ultimately quite stupid film that uses half-baked angel powers as a cop out, MICHAEL is an extremely interesting study in trends of biblical imagery in mainstream pop culture of the recent past.

This infamous sci-fi film is perhaps the church of Scientology's biggest attempt to ingratiate itself with mainstream culture. BATTLEFIELD EARTH is based on a novel by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, whose end goal was to adapt this book into a Hollywood film. Hubbard made an attempt in the mid-1980s to produce the adaptation himself, but it failed, and Hubbard died in 1986. Hubbard had hinted to John Travolta, a prominent Scientologist, that Hubbard would have liked Travolta to star in the film. Travolta took it upon himself to bring BATTLEFIELD EARTH to life in the mid-90s, eventually co-producing and starring as Terl, the dreadlocked 9-foot-tall antagonist of the film. Travolta's character Terl is a “Psychlo”, a colonial race of humanoid aliens on a universe-wide mission to strip less powerful planets of their resources. 3000 years in the future, earth is one of these planets. Johnny Goodboy is a human “man-animal” living like a post apocalyptic caveman and being hunted by the Psychlos. When Terl meets Johnny, Terl enslaves the human, thinking him inferior, but Johnny quickly adapts to Psychlo civilization and reads the historical Declaration of Independence which inspires him to thwart his captors with a daring escape. Although BATTLEFIELD EARTH doesn't demonstrate much about the Scientologist doctrine, perhaps it proves that Hubbard's main spiritual goal was aimed at the lowest heights possible — achieve fame and attention in the Hollywood system.  View our full episode list and subscribe to any of our public feeds: http://boysbiblestudy.com Unlock 2+ bonus episodes per month: http://patreon.com/boysbiblestudy Subscribe to our Twitch for livestreams: http://twitch.tv/boysbiblestudy Follow us on Instagram: http://instagram.com/boysbiblestudy Follow us on Twitter: http://twitter.com/boysbiblestudy

Adam (John Travolta) is an intrepid reporter for Rolling Stone magazine currently chasing the biggest story of his career while in LA....when he suddenly comes up with an intriguing back-up story: how healthclubs are becoming the singles bars of the 1980's. :P  And he zeroes in on one healthclub in particular which is called "The Sports Connection" and there he becomes immersed in their world, he is mostly drawn to Jessie (Oscar-winner Jamie Lee Curtis) who is a very charismatic aerobics instructor drawing enthusiastic crowds, though also has a past.  He begins chasing a story about her while also falling for her....and complications ensue.  Directed by James Bridges (The China Syndrome, Urban Cowboy), this was wall-to-wall pelvic thrusts and mid '80's synth-pop music and is otherwise hard to categorize...which might be a major reason it flopped so hard upon initial release almost forty years ago.  But it has since garnered a cult following and is fondly remembered by many as a campy time capsule from a different era.  It also co-stars Laraine Newman, Marilu Henner, Mathew Reed, and Anne DeSalvo.Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
