Paddington: The Musical has officially opened on the West End, and yes, that bear has absolutely tugged at our heart‑strings. In fact one of us in particular might just have gotten teary at the trailers. And newly single Nina Dobrev’s Halloween costume might just be the sneakiest celeb breakup shade we’ve seen this year. But that got us thinking about the pettiest celeb split moments of all time. We’re ranking the one‑upmanship, the look‑what‑I‑did posts and the clap‑backs no one saw coming. Plus, Reese Witherspoon has gone on record about why she thinks modern romance is in free‑fall We’re reacting (and no, we aren’t sure we agree) — and we might just have planned our own rom‑com revival while we’re at it.LISTEN NEXT:Nina Dobrev & Zac Efron’s Revenge Hook-Up and We Have Notes On Taylor Swift’s New MovieTHE END BITS Our new podcast Watch Party is out now, listen on Apple or Spotify.

In today's episode we turn our attention to architecture and its role in shaping not just our buildings and infrastructure, but the society, environment and communities that are created by our built environment.To tackle this challenging brief, I am joined this week in a quiet corner of the Building Centre in London by Chris Williamson, internationally renowned architect, founder of Weston Williamson + Partners – the practice that he set up in 1985 - and the freshly installed new President of the Royal Institute of British Architects – RIBA.Chris is a man with a bold vision to reshape the profession and reshape RIBA, an organisation which has been a cornerstone for architecture for nearly two centuries. But today, the institution faces serious questions about its relevance, its purpose, and how it can adapt to meet the needs of a fast-changing world. And as issues like climate resilience, community engagement, and professional diversity take centre stage, there is growing pressure for RIBA to evolve — to become more accessible, more influential, and more impactful.But to honest, it's a challenge that Chris has been immersed in for his whole career, having worked on a huge portfolio of infrastructure projects, including notably the Jubilee Line extension station at London Bridge, Elizabeth Line stations at Paddington and Woolwich, the Melbourne Metro Tunnel project plus many urban regeneration projects, such as the Arden Cross masterplan in the West Midlands.All of this work has emphasised Chris's focus on the design of spaces that are not only functional but are sustainable and, crucially, enjoyable for people.In his presidential nomination bid, Chris promised big change – in his first 100 days he vowed to review the 2021 RIBA Masterplan to create a more purposeful institution that leads on sustainability, champions diverse routes into the profession, delivers lifelong learning, and rebuilds public trust in architecture as a force for societal progress.So what does that future look like? What will it take to deliver meaningful reform? And how can architects once again be seen — not just as designers of buildings — but as stewards of a better, fairer, more sustainable world?ResourcesWeston Williamson + Partners websiteRoyal Institute of British Architects – RIBA websiteChris Williams elected RIBA PresidentChris Williamson's presidential bidThe Stirling PrizeChris on “Your Architect” by Derek SeniorRIBA amendments to the Planning and Infrastructure Bill

Victoria Beckham is no stranger to headlines. And now she's revealed that intense media scrutiny led to her developing an eating disorder. Cue more headlines. One particular article stood out, which asked why those around Victoria - including her PR team - didn't seem to address the problem at the time.This week, David Yelland and Simon Lewis look at what this tells us, not just about Victoria Beckham's story, but the delicate line that people in the world of PR must tread when they are dealing with a client facing a highly sensitive and personal issue. How do you discuss the elephant in the room?On the extended edition on BBC Sounds, we're on the comeback trail. Three-time Olympic dressage gold medallist Charlotte Dujardin has begun a very low-key return to her sport after serving a ban for 'excessively' whipping a horse. So far, she's not given any interviews. But is that sustainable - and what are the PR options for trying to return to the spotlight after a scandal?Also, it's never a good idea to wind up a bear. Especially one from Darkest Peru with a serious marmalade habit. But that's what the makers of Spitting Image have done. The Michael Bond estate and Studio Canal - who make the Paddington films - are taking legal action after the much-loved bear was depicted as a drug-taking, foul-mouthed beast in a YouTube series. Time for David and Simon to sit down with Paddington and offer some reputational repair work.Producer: Duncan Middleton Editor: Sarah Teasdale Executive Producer: Eve Streeter Music by Eclectic Sounds A Raconteur Studios production for BBC Radio 4

Wir nehmen die blaue Pille: Anhand von TRON: ARES beschäftigen wir uns heute mal mit VIRTUELLEN WELTEN. Also mit Filmen, in denen es um virtuelle Welten geht oder die versuchen solche abzubilden. Demnach reisen Schlogger, Andi und Schröck einmal durch die Geschichte, von WELT AM DRAHT und THIRTEENTH FLOOR, die sich beide auf den Roman SIMULACRON-3 stützen, über den ersten TRON (inklusive dessen Fortsetzungen) und DER RASENMÄHER MANN bis hin zu MATRIX, eXistenZ, BELLE, JUMANJI, READY PLEAYER ONE oder FREE GUY. Und natürlich kommen auch diverse andere Titel zur Sprache, bei denen zum Teil noch geklärt werden muss, ob sie überhaupt die Kriterien erfüllen. So geht es dann zum Beispiel um Streifen wie INCEPTION, PAPRIKA, GHOST IN THE SHELL oder VIRTUOSITY wie auch STRANGE DAYS, GAMER, POSSESSOR, JOHNNY MNEMONIC, ENDERS GAME, NIRVANA oder einzelne Episoden der Serie BLACK MIRROR. Darüber hinaus erzählen die Drei selbstverständlich von dem, was sie zuletzt gesehen haben, so dass unter anderem das Original von THE TOXIC AVENGER oder PADDINGTON 2 zur Sprache kommen, während Andi dann endlich auch mal WEAPONS für sich entdeckt hat und im Anschluss mit Daniel noch ein bisschen Werbung für die Doku DER TALENTIERTE MR. F macht, deren Regisseur wir hoffentlich nächste Woche bei uns begrüßen dürfen. Abgerundet durch EVIL-E - EVA RIES UND DER WU-TANG CLAN und BRAINSCAN, die als Letztes über Schröcks Netzhaut geflimmert sind. And last but not least werden noch ein paar schöne Events angekündigt. Zum Beispiel das WEIRD WEEKENDER-Festival, bei dem Daniel wieder zu Gast ist, oder auch der Blaue Panther, der TV- und Streaming Award des Landes Bayern, den Daniel unter anderem hier auf dem Kanal oder beim Rocket Beans Twitch-Channel zusammen mit der Twitch-Streamerin Nova live kommentieren wird. Kurz gesagt: voll gepackt und viel zu schnell vorbei. Dennoch wünschen wir Euch viel Spaß (sowohl im Kino als auf der Couch) wie auch ein erholsames Wochenende. San Frantschüssko.

A lively, anecdotal wander through the creamy world of stucco — the material that gave London's grand western terraces their smooth Italianate glamour. From its humble mix of lime and sand to its starring role in John Nash's Regent's Park and Little Venice, this is the story of how plaster and paint pulled off one of the greatest visual conjuring tricks in urban history: turning brick into marble, speculation into splendour, and Paddington into “Venice.”

Was sind die nächsten KLASSIKER? Nach ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER wollen sich Antje, Thilo und Schröck dieser Frage stellen, um erst noch mal ein wenig über ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER zu reden und dann eine kleine Liste mit Filmen anzufertigen, über die garantiert in etlichen Jahren noch gesprochen wird oder die das Zeug dazu haben, dass in etlichen Jahren noch über sie gesprochen wird. Wird ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD dazu gehören oder ist er zu spitz? Wie vielleicht auch SMILE, MALIGNANT, HEREDITARY - DAS VERMÄCHTNIS oder AFTERSUN. Kommen die Drei an sicher geglaubten Titeln wie BARBIE, OPPENHEIMER, MAD MAX: FURY ROAD, LA LA LAND oder PARASITE vorbei? Oder schütteln wir noch ein paar JOKER wie THE EMPTY MAN, GET OUT, THE SUBSTANCE oder KPOP DEMON HUNTERS aus dem Ärmel? Und wo wir schon bei Animationsfilmen sind: Wie siehts aus mit ALLES STEHT KOPF, SPIDER-MAN - INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE oder PADDINGTON 2? Haben sie eher einen Platz auf der Liste verdient als DER GRINCH von 2018? Und was ist eigentlich mit den neuen DUNE-Filmen, mit JOHN WICK (4) oder BAYBLON? Findet es heraus, wenn sich unsere Besetzung heute ein launiges Hin und Her um die begehrten Listenplätze liefert und dabei auch noch der großen CLAUDIA CARDINALE gedenken, die jetzt leider im Alter von 87 Jahren von uns gegangen ist. Abgerundet von einem Veranstaltungshinweis, bei dem unsere lieber Kollege SEAN DAVID ein wenig Geld für Synchron-Legende Tommi Piper (die deutsche Stimme von ALF) sammeln möchte.

In this special edition of Born to Watch, the team dives back into the deep blue to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Steven Spielberg's iconic 1975 thriller, Jaws. But this isn't just a rewatch, it's a cinematic pilgrimage. Hosts Whitey and Dan welcome special guest Paul Glasby to revisit the film not just in spirit, but in spectacle, attending a screening at Hoyts Tweed City, experiencing this Jaws 50th Anniversary Review on the big screen with recliners, giant Pepsi Maxes, and a crew of unsuspecting newcomers.This episode is more than just a review; it's a tribute. For Whitey, who's marking his own 50th birthday, Jaws isn't just a classic; it's a defining piece of his movie-loving DNA, neck-and-neck with Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back as his all-time favourite. The team reminisces about the first time they saw the film, how it scarred them from surfing, and the strange magic that Jaws still holds over an audience, even half a century later.Dan, making his debut on a Jaws episode, brings the perspective of a cinema recluse, someone more used to fields and chickens than Dolby sound and John Williams scores. But even he's swept up by the grandeur of the theatrical experience. Paul, a returning guest and self-proclaimed booster-seat podcaster, shares a British kid's perspective on Jaws' TV legacy, recalling its 3D TV gimmicks and how the film once ruled Saturday night telly. But seeing it on the big screen? That's another beast entirely.Throughout the episode, the guys reflect on Spielberg's breakout masterpiece, how a 27-year-old director, working with malfunctioning mechanical sharks and intense studio pressure, managed to craft a film that changed cinema forever. There's plenty of love for the gritty film stock, practical effects, and Spielberg's decision to show less rather than more. The now-famous story about the shark not working—leading to a suspenseful masterclass in implication over gore—gets its well-deserved praise.They also unpack the movie's unforgettable score, with Paul comparing John Williams' two-note theme to the Rocky IV training montage, so iconic that it shapes the entire experience. For Dan, the real terror lies in the opening scene, all shadows and suggestion. For Whitey, it's the rich character work, Quint's haunted Indianapolis speech, Hooper's dry wit, and Brody's quiet resolve that keep the film swimming in the top tier of cinema history.The episode isn't just nostalgia-heavy; it's a call to arms. Why don't we watch classic films in the cinema more often? Why isn't there a chain of retro movie houses showing Jaws, Alien, The Exorcist, and Boogie Nights on the regular? Dan offers a deeper look into the decline of cinema attendance, post-COVID challenges, and how theatres now survive on mega-drinks and bar-style concessions. But the gang also sees an opportunity: could Born to Watch host monthly screenings of classics? Would audiences come?There's also plenty of fun tangents, dodgy car park stories, oversized soft drinks, generational lines drawn by Paddington in Peru, and roasting fellow podcasters for their Marvel movie hot takes. Expect talk of Spielberg's filmography, the state of modern blockbusters, and whether Top Gun: Maverick or Avengers: Endgame can hold a candle to the cultural typhoon that Jaws was in 1975.In true Born to Watch style, the episode blends deep cinematic appreciation with pub-style banter, bringing in kids' reactions, audience dynamics, and even some surprising praise for Richard Dreyfuss's underrated turn as Hooper. For a film that's been endlessly dissected, this conversation feels fresh, personal, and anchored by genuine love for cinema.Whether you're a longtime fan or a landlocked Gen Z who's never felt the terror of a dorsal fin rising from the surf, this episode is a reminder of why we watch, why we return, and why, 50 years later, Jaws still bites.JOIN THE CONVERSATIONIs Jaws still the scariest movie ever made—or did the rubber shark finally lose its bite? Should Mayor Vaughn have been eaten first?Would YOU get in the water with Hooper, Brody, and a barrel full of bad ideas?Drop us a voicemail at https://www.borntowatch.com.au and share your Jaws hot takes.Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your pods.
