Welcome to the first episode of Lifting The Lid, here on the Official Emirates FA Cup podcast.Over the next six weeks we'll be bringing you in-depth conversations between our two hosts, Tubes and former Fulham, Chelsea and Reading player Steve Sidwell and some of the greats of the game about their lives in football and, in particular, their experiences playing in, watching, and in some cases, winning the FA Cup, the world's oldest and best club competition.In our first episode we kick off with a double dose, by speaking to not one, but two legends of the game. We've got FA Cup finalist and former West Ham, Fulham, Brighton and England player Bobby Zamora; and we also have Leeds, Everton and Preston's Jermaine Beckford… the joint seventh highest FA Cup scorer of all time!This episode explores the cup's ‘cult heroes'. It's a role that's difficult to define but could equally be to do with a player's personality and character around a club - like maybe Troy Deeney at Watford - or a particular moment in the club's history. Both Bobby and Jermaine are certified cult heroes for at least one of their clubs, but it's fantastic to hear what that means to them as footballers, and how they relate to the idea.Subscribe now to make sure you don't miss any episodes of Lifting the Lid on The Official Emirates FA Cup Podcast.Lifting The Lid The Official Emirates FA Cup Podcast is a Little Dot Studios production for The FA.The show is hosted by Tubes and Steve Sidwell and produced by Harold McShiel and Jake Cunningham.

In this episode director Jonas Poher Rasmussen spoke to actor and producer Nikolaj Coster-Waldau about 2021 BIFA Best International Independent Film winner Flee, which Jonas directed and Nikolaj served as an executive producer on, along with former podcast guest Riz Ahmed. This week Flee made history, becoming the first film to receive Oscar nominations for Best International Feature Film, Best Animated Film and Best Documentary. Flee tells the story of a man named Amin as he grapples with a painful secret he has kept hidden for 20 years, one that threatens to derail the life he has built for himself and his soon to be husband. Recounted mostly through animation to director, and close friend, Jonas, he tells for the first time the story of his extraordinary journey as a child refugee from Afghanistan to modern Denmark.Having made a name for himself through documentary radio and live action storytelling, Flee marks an ambitious and fruitful creative leap for Jonas, working in animation for the first time. Nikolaj Coster Waldau (who listeners will remember as Jaime Lannister in Game of Thrones), serves as an executive producer on the film and in this podcast they get into just what makes Flee so special, as well as their own journeys through film, including why keeping secrets is so important for acting, and why one of Jonas's best reviews came from two strangers sharing a beer.The BIFA Podcast is a Little Dot Studios production for BIFAThe show is hosted by Jake CunninghamIt's produced by Ellie Aitken, Jake Cunningham and Harold McShielAnd it's edited by Content is Queen See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
