This podcast is a deeply personal one for me. Not just because I resonate so much with Jassa and his experience of not having a true sense of identity, but because I'm expecting a child with my wife late this year who will be of mixed heritage. My wife is Italian and I'm Indian so our child will be both Indian and Italian, rather than half Indian and half Italian. I never really thought of being half something and half something else as ever really something to pay attention to, but recording this podcast with Jassa and reading his story has made a real impact on me.In the same way John Agard educated us all with his wildly popular poem “half caste”, about the impact of words on people's sense of worth, I feel Jassa has educated me on the use of my words and thoughts, regardless of whether there is ill intent or malice behind them. Words mean so much and I'd never want anyone, let alone my unborn child, to feel anything other than a whole person.Jassa Ahluwalia is a British actor, writer, filmmaker and trade unionist. Born in Coventry to a white English mum and a brown Punjabi dad in 1990, he attended school in Leicester and was raised in an extended family environment. He spoke English in the playground, Punjabi with his grandparents, and spent various summer holidays in India. He came to prominence as Rocky in the hit BBC Three series Some Girls, followed by starring roles in Unforgotten, Ripper Street, and Peaky Blinders. He's also one of the funniest comedians I've ever come across on social media. Please watch some of his sketches online!Jassa created the hashtag #BothNotHalf to explore mixed identity in light of his own British-Indian heritage. His TEDx talk on 'How Language Shapes Identity' has clocked up over 170k views and his BBC One documentary Am I English? won an Asian Media Award in 2022.

This week on the show, I'm talking to Jassa Ahluwalia about his book and memoir, Both Not Half. Both Not Half is a poignant exploration of Jassa's own heritage – Punjabi and English – and other forms of identity including faith, class, gender and sexuality. Jassa reminds us that we are never fractions of an identity, but always whole, in a myriad of beautiful, overlapping, confusing but empowering ways.

A classic among classics, we're talking enemies to lovers this week!

New episode out now! We watched the pilot episode of Ripper Street, “I Need Light”, and dig into the ins and outs of Victorian crime once again. We discuss the wonderfully detailed world-building, from the great costumes, to the period-specific dialogue and parlance, to the masses of set dressing that give a lived-in feeling. We talk about how it's interesting that the show begins in the aftermath of the Ripper murders, but then makes it clear they're not influencing the way the detectives run things. We also think the actors all do wonderful work with these seemingly archetypal yet complex characters, and debate whether the detective methods feel true to the period. Katy gets really into ephemera, Carrie loves Brendan Fraser, Maddy comes up with an amazing new name for a type of facial hair, and Mack gives a short lesson on early film—among other things. We also talk about the Tiffany Problem, wonder what laws undercover cops can get away with breaking, dunk on Thomas Edison, and decide which topics we could give a five minute speech on with no warning. Listen to hear us cover famous Homers, traumatically embarrassing school stories, Hussars, and frosted flakes. And remember - always turn down Turkish delight! Enjoy!

Jack, O Estripador é o pseudônimo dado ao famoso serial killer que deixou um rastro de sangue no ano de 1888 em Whitechapel - Londres. O pseudônimo teve sua origem advinda de uma carta enviada para a polícia em que o assassino se denominava como "Jack, O Estripador" (em inglês Jack the Ripper). Jack, O Estripador de certo não foi o primeiro serial killer a existir, mas a mídia colaborou para a externalização e visibilidade do caso, de modo que ele se tornou famoso internacionalmente. A fama desse caso influenciou a cultura pop de inúmeras maneiras, vários filmes sobre o assunto foram criados, séries como Ripper Street do canal BBC One, inúmeros livros e jogos Compreende-se que a cultura pop está repleta de referências a esse serial killer e uma das que será tratada hoje é o HQ chamada “Do inferno” escrita por Alan Moore. Hoje, nossos investigadores Andrei Fernandes, Ira Croft, Jey e Gabi Larocca abordam o sensacionalismo e o medo do século XIX que não é tão diferente do XXI. Jack, o Estripador, surge junto com a modernidade e, como um arauto, abre caminho para o século XX e todos os horrores à sua frente.

And as we know, sex does not solely take place between just men and women. So ; what is sex for? Come with Fern and Womenkind Collective as we uncover a bit about the sexual lives of our ancestors. Find out where the word fuck came from and what medieval writers used to describe sex in writings and poetry. Gender fluidity is not a modern concept, Fern explores LGBTQ+ communities through history and we meet amazing characters that are part of our sex history. She celebrates the naturalness and joy of sex, our bodies should be adored, not plastic or manipulated, she is honest and completely open and we learn so much from her. The conversation flowed into sex education for young people today and we talk about #everyonesinvited and how young people today are dealing with far more aggressive abuse from their peers and the stand they are taking against the abuse, we applaud the powerful girls of today. Thank-you Fern for a fabulous chat! Fern gives us her 3 sex lessons from history, she includes Victorian sex toys, and sex talk from the 15th and 16th Century.   The Foodie Collective talk love and sex food, what turns you on in the kitchen? Oysters? Caviar? Champagne? Or does the sound of your partner eating make you want to scream? We ask what food gets the girls in the mood for lurve?  There's a new WI for Lou from Jinty, a poignant and important invite surrounded with gratitude. A letter of gratitude to someone in your life, who maybe changed it or helped you along the way. Who will Lou write to?   The book Collective conclude A Year of Marvellous Ways by Sarah Winman, Jinty has struggled with this book but it has come to her at a very emotional time in her life.

Florence Largiliiere is a researcher specialised in modern European history with a focus on the years 1870-1945 and Jewish communities. More specifically, I study the social and cultural history of these decades – I am especially interested in people's history and their experiences of the post-war years, immigration, and nationalism. I recently started to work on the representation of history in popular culture and media, and I am now developing a project on the experiences and representations of veterans suffering from shell-shock and PTSD and their families. I recently completed a PhD in Modern European History at Queen Mary, University of London under the direction of Professor Julian Jackson and Dr Daniel Wildmann. Entitled ‘Conservative Jews and their Nation: A Comparative Study of France, Germany, and Italy from 1918 to 1942', it looked at how patriotic, assimilated Jews defined, presented, and adapted their Jewish and national identities in the interwar years and after the implementation of Racial Laws. Before that, I completed a Research Master in History at Sciences Po Paris (with Professor Marc Lazar) and an MPhil in Modern European History at the University of Cambridge (with Dr John Pollard). You can find me on Twitter (@Firenze_L) and here: https://florencelargilliere.com Episode plan – Ripper Street: Presentation of the show (focus on the first couple of seasons) When it starts (1889) – Jack the Ripper not at the centre Main characters Format of the shows in its first two seasons (“crime of the week”). Diversity of themes covered (social inequalities, photography, prostitution, antisemitism, eugenics, immigration, etc.) Context London, and specifically Whitechapel, in the late Victorian era = the largest city in the world. East end = the Docklands and industries, the working poor Whitechapel manufactured as a site of gothic horror, depravity, and danger but a very diverse neighbourhood A word on the police force = Who were they? What were the main issues at the time? Historical (in)accuracy in Ripper Street What the creators were looking for and how they worked with historians Richard Warlow relying on historical consultants, but more to know what to keep or “throw away” as creators and story-tellers (example of Joseph Merrick's episodes) Give a few examples: Captain Jackson, Lobotomy, child trial The role of dialogue => the “sound of the past” How rich the show is for historians = the diversity of topics covered (mentioned in the intro of this podcast) Develop a couple of examples Also: a lot of attention to details, to the environment (posters, clothes, streets, markets…) But still, a very 21st century show, “CSI in the Victorian era” for Dr Jessica Hindes East London in Ripper Street, an area in constant evolution Scientific evolution Always some degree of ambivalence, innovations/science could be used for better or worse = the tube, photography and pornography, eugenics, electricity, psychosurgery Political evolution Especially Socialism and Communism The Dock Strikes of 1889 in context, role of Jewish community here Social evolution Linked to this fear of class conflict and social disintegration = role of charities and of the middle / higher classes but also local vigilance committees and patrols New forms of entertainment = the music halls Immigration and displaced population Populations displaced by modernisation = cleaner / more hygienic housing, electricity, railways, tramways… Immigration: from China (Opium) Zoom on the Jewish community: overt antisemitism, an organised community but divisions between assimilated Jews and new comers from Eastern Europe (though not the most visible aspect in the show) More informations on https://www.histoireenseries.com

From 1963 to 1976, famed French serial killer Charles Sobhraj traveled the so-called Hippie Trail, the path counterculture enthusiasts took through Southeast Asia in the 1970s to escape the conformity of Western life and seek transcendence and culture in the Far East. There, he killed at least twelve people, gaining their trust with his good looks and charm before drugging them and eventually killing them after taking their valuables -- often with the help of accomplice Ajay Choudhury and lover/partner Marie-Andrée Leclerc. Sobhraj's story has been dramatized in many forms, the most recent being the Netflix/BBC co-production The Serpent, starring The Mauritanian's Tahar Rahim as Sobhraj and Doctor Who veteran Jenna Coleman as Leclerc. There, directors Tom Shankland and Hans Herbots chart Sobhraj's crime spree in sumptuous period detail, right down to the wide-collared costumes and groovy '70s needle drops. The show's got its flaws -- it's structured in an admittedly frustrating series of fragmented timelines that jump back and forth so often it's hard for its characters to cohere, and Coleman's performance is as affecting as her French accent is muddled. But one element that grips is Dominik Scherrer's eerie, period-warping score. The Swiss-born British composer is a regular collaborator with Shankland (he scored previous Shankland series Ripper Street and The Missing), and his score for The Serpent slithers appropriately between period grooviness and nail-biting suspense. Not only that, it's a score steeped in the Southeast Asian locations in which the show is set; he composed much of the score while shooting in Bangkok, and recorded a good portion of it in Thailand with Thai instruments and performers, leading to a sound that blends the slick '70s cool that Sobhraj exudes with the exotic locales in which he does his dirty deeds.   For the podcast, I sat down with Scherrer to discuss the unique challenges of the project, that line between being period-appropriate and too on-the-nose, and working with some of the most interesting instruments and period synthesizers of the day to craft the haunting, tension-laden score for The Serpent. (He also talks -- and plays -- us through the winding tension of the series' title theme.)

I had no clue then I would end up behind a camera years later.” Studying Graphic Design at Torquay Fine Art School he discovered a love of B&W photography as well as daydreaming about movies and movie making. “So I borrowed lights and a Super 8 camera from the school and made my first short film with my brother as the lead and my mum as the gaffer!“ He attended the Napier Film School in Edinburgh wanting, like most, to be a director yet discovered another key role he felt instantly drawn to - cinematographer. He spent his entire grant on old Arriflex ST camera from a former BBC Cameraman and began shooting a number of music promos and shorts films with friends, learning as he went. (One short, SEX & DEATH, won a Scottish BAFTA Television Craft Award for Lighting). In 2002 he shot his first feature film THE LAST GREAT WILDERNESS for Oscar winning director, David MacKenzie. His first real break came with feature film THE SWEENEY (2012 d. Nick Love) based on the 70’s TV show. “I remember taking my parents to see it at a Multiplex in Devon and that feeling of shear pride and knowing no matter how hard this industry can be, cinematography, and the artistry that came with it was my lifelong passion.” For his first TV experience he shot one episode of DOCTOR WHO (2013 d. Colm McCarthy) which led to episodes of RIPPER STREET (2013 d. Kieron Hawkes) and then the entire Season 2 of the acclaimed show PEAKY BLINDERS (2014 d. Colm McCarthy) which earned him a BAFTA & RTS nomination. In New Orleans he shot AMERICAN HERO (2015 d. Nick love) a documentary style feature film giving him an insight into the American film scene. It was while shooting the Canadian based movie I STILL SEE YOU (2017 d. Scott Speer) he was invited to LA to shoot the series THE ASSASSINATION OF GIANNI VERSACE (2018) a vast TV production for Ryan Murphy Productions and Fox Studios (that went on to be nominated for 18 Emmys). “I couldn’t believe my luck so I put my head down and worked and created as hard as I could” Since then he has photographed the powerful transgender TV show, POSE (2018-19) in New York (based on the 1990 documentary, Paris is Burning ) and more recently the alternative vision of discrimination in HOLLYWOOD (2020) for Netflix which both changed his view on the power of entertainment and "how it can make a difference by challenging and possibly healing key social issues." He was invited into the BSC in 2018.

Colson Whitehead won the Pulitzer Prize for his 2016 novel The Underground Railroad, about slaves escaping from the southern states and seeking sanctuary in the north. The author discusses his new novel The Nickel Boys, which follows the misfortunes of a young black boy, Elwood Curtis, who finds himself being sent to the brutal Nickel Academy, a segregated reform school where the threat of severe - and sometimes fatal - punishment beatings is a constant fear for all the pupils. Prior to Thursday’s Prom featuring the sacred music of Duke Ellington, Samira talks to two of the performers in the concert, singer Carleen Anderson and conductor Peter Edwards, about Ellington’s blend of big-band, gospel and orchestral music in this evening of dance, song and jazz with a Christian theme. Carnival Row is a new fantasy from Amazon Prime which debuts on Friday. Ekow Eshun reviews the series described "as a complex and dark world where Game of Thrones meets Ripper Street." Starring Orlando Bloom and Cara Delevingne, and directed by Jon Amiel, it features a human detective and a fairy rekindling a dangerous affair in a Victorian fantasy world; the city's uneasy peace collapses when a string of murders reveals an unimaginable monster. We end the programme with a tribute to Sheila Steafel, whose death was announced yesterday. A much loved comic performer and versatile actress whose career spanned six decades, Steafel appeared in films including Quatermass and the Pit (1967), was a regular performer in the long-running music hall style variety programme The Good Old Days and the first woman to join the all-male cast of the Radio 4 satirical show Week Ending.

Monty returns during the deadest week on the TV schedule, and Tara proposed a TV forcening that had us all pick episodes from the week's deadest night -- Friday -- for each other to watch. We caught up with House Hunters, searched for Bering Sea Gold, survived A Murder In The Family, and tasted Epic Sweets. Then we assessed whether the Animal Kingdom theme is worse than jazz before going around the dial with Ripper Street, Scientology, and the Face Off spin-off. Will Dave hate an upcoming Orlando Bloom project about faerie expats? Did Monty's MASH submission enter the Nonac? And what the helle is going on with the theme songs in Game Time? Stop searching the guide and settle in for an all-new Extra Hot Great. GUESTS

When a man brings his own headphones to an interview, you know you're about to sit down with somebody interesting. Morgan C Jones is an actor, writer, producer, voice-over artist, stand-up comedian and probably a few others things as well. We chat about why he brings his own cans to interviews and VO sessions, and discover he's revisiting our studio after a significant absence. We discuss his work over the years and how going to film school opened up his desire to be an actor; why he got into and gave up stand-up comedy; his voice-over work; and how, after something of an absence, he got back into the acting world, appearing in shows like Game of Thrones, Vikings and Ripper Street. We also touch on how he keeps his professional and political personas separate on Twitter, and lots more. It's good stuff, and thanks to Morgan for coming in and giving me some of his time. You can follow him @funnydub or @mcj66
