Podcast appearances and mentions of Shane Meadows

In this episode, Ben and Jack take a close look at Shane Meadows' This Is England, a film that confronts the complexities of race, identity, and nationalism in 1980s Britain. They unpack how the film depicts the horrors of racism through art - and whether such portrayals are a necessary form of truth-telling, or if they risk exploiting the trauma of those affected.They delve into the long shadow of Margaret Thatcher, exploring how her policies reshaped northern, working-class communities, and how the film captures the fallout. The episode also shines a light on the film's female characters, whose presence challenges and deepens the male-dominated narrative, offering much-needed perspective and emotional grounding.The discussion then turns to the danger of disenfranchised masculinity - how lost, angry young men become vulnerable to radicalisation and draws parallels with the rise of far-right movements today. Have we really learned from the past, or are we repeating it in new forms?A timely and urgent conversation about history, identity, and the power of film to hold a mirror to society.Also in this episode: Ben responds to the backlash surrounding his A Minecraft Movie review, and Jack passionately argues why the latest season of The White Lotus isn't just the best one yet, but a near-flawless piece of television.If you find the episode thought-provoking, please consider rating, reviewing, and subscribing to help others find the podcast.

Arranca novo ciclo, que na verdade ainda não tem nome, mas que traz à órbita filmes sobre racismo e desigualdades sociais. A primeira escolha vem do país que está no título, e mete miudagem e juventude à deriva nos anos 80. Uma história aparentemente próxima do próprio realizador, o tio Shane Meadows, que fala sobre crescer e procurar referências, tendo como mote fenómenos sociais infelizmente actuais.

     This week- two films about types of masculinity and finding your way.     Tyler Williams is a popular senior on the wrestling team. Learning he has a severe SLAP tear that requires surgery as soon as possible to repair, Tyler decides to hide it from everyone, especially his domineering father. When his injury is revealed, Tyler spirals to tragic results. The aftermath of which will test the Williams family and those around them. The third film from critically acclaimed writer-director Trey Edward Shults, Waves.     Romeo and Gavin have been best friends and neighbors as long as either can remember. When Romeo gets beaten up for defending Gavin from bullies, he is assisted by the slightly strange and aggressive Morrell. Morrell tries to romance Romeo's sister and drives a wedge between the boys, leading to a violent confrontation. The third film from beloved UK cult filmmaker Shane Meadows, as well as the screen debuts of both Paddy Considine and Vicky McClure, A Room for Romeo Brass.     All that and Dave gets REALLY ranty, Tyler rolls around his happy place, and Kevin might have forgotten something but it probably isn't important. Join us, won't you?   Episode 377- Dat Florida-Midland Flow 

In the penultimate episode of the season, Neil sits down with friend and colleague Kat Flint-Nicol to think through British cinema. The aim was to focus on regionality, but the conversation is much-more wide ranging than that. It captures the complex intersectionality of place, class, genre, industry gatekeeping, and the relationship between industry and culture.  Films, places and texts discussed in this discursive chat include Rochester and Dickens, and David Lean's Great Expectations, Terence Davies, The Commitments, Nick Love, Sexy Beast and the crime cinema that followed it, Muscle and Hyena, Guy Ritchie, Last Orders, Ray Winstone, Rose Glass and Shane Meadows.  It is fascinating conversation and hopefully provides insight into Neil and Kat's current thinking about the complexities of British Cinema historically and contemporarily. — You can listen to The Cinematologists for free wherever you listen to podcasts: click here to follow.

Toby Kebbell on his breakthrough role in Shane Meadows' Dead Man's Shoes, and working with huge industry names like Woody Allen, Oliver Stone, M. Night Shyamalan, Guy Ritchie, Val Kilmer and Robert Redford to name but a fraction. “There's no such thing as a bad student, only a bad teacher.” Toby also gets into all the skills he's learned for roles - things like horseback riding, playing the piano and most recently being trained to box by legend Carl Froch for new movie Salvable co-starring Shia LeBeouf. The pair also discuss the different ways becoming a father can change you, why Toby believes theatre is still the best way for young people to learn acting (even amid the rise in social media presence and personalities), class culture wars and differences in opportunity, and why he believes discipline is responsible for his success.

Bob Cratchit. Ron Weasley. Daniel Blake. Working class characters are often painted as humble folk, morally pure and deserving of our sympathy. But what if they're...not?Join us as we discuss truly progressive portrayals of the working class in film. Instead of patronising, what if films instead gave people agency over their own lives? Instead of portraying poverty as a purifying force, what if films were honest about the negative consequences of oppression on the subject? What if – and bear with me here – but what if working class people were sometimes bad? We start our first episode of 2024 with a quick discussion on the Golden Globes and Academy Awards, before jumping into a chat about a number of films, some which we think do the working class a disservice, and others that we feel are much more honest and human in their portrayals. Up for discussion are:The films of Ken Loach and Shane Meadows, including I, Daniel Blake (2016), Sorry We Missed You (2019) and This Is England (2006);Meantime (1983);Saltburn (2023);The films of Bong Joon-ho, including Snowpiercer (2013) and Parasite (2019);Fallen Leaves (2023);Red Rocket (2021);Harry Potter;Pride (2014);The Royle Family (TV sitcom);The Full Monty (1997);Brechtian theatre;The films of Jean-Luv Godard;Together (2000).Support the show

Joe & Adam hark back to 2010 and David O Russell's The Fighter; a film that insisted it was canon during awards season, but has since faded from view. Or so they say. The flex on class and moot what a British version of similar film would be a la Shane Meadows. Also: can it be not Hollywood when it is Hollywood? Is Cardiff South of London? And much, much more.

Commencée en 1986, puis une deuxième saison en 1988 et enfin une troisième dans les années 90, This Is England dépeint le pays en question à travers les décennies. Créée par le talentueux Shane Meadows, cette comédie britannique sociale a fait ses débuts sous la forme d'un film éponyme en 2006 avant de se métamorphoser en une série télévisée qui a laissé une trace dans le paysage audiovisuel. Chaque saison est composée de peu d'épisodes, quatre ou trois, mais tous sont mémorables à sa manière. Elle sert de référence à des grandes histoires à travers les années comme un Years and Years ou d'adolescents à la Skins loin du glamour anglais. Les trois saisons sont disponibles sur Arte.tv. https://youtu.be/iet7W9gFwE8?si=NtaVhByRHqouXs9v L'histoire de This Is England prend racine dans les années 80, une époque marquée par des bouleversements sociaux et culturels. Au cœur de l'intrigue se trouve Shaun (avec la tête incontournable de Thomas Turgoose), un adolescent égaré cherchant à trouver sa place dans un monde en constante évolution. Lorsqu'il croise la route d'un groupe de skinheads, dirigé par l'imposant Woody (Stephen Graham récemment vu dans Bodies), la vie de Shaun prend un tournant inattendu. Les autres membres du groupe, joués brillamment par Vicky McClure (actuellement dans Trigger Point), Joseph Gilgun, et d'autres acteurs exceptionnels, ajoutent des dimensions riches et complexes à l'histoire. Les acteurs sont devenus des visages familiers de la télévision britannique pas toujours parfaits plastiquement mais avec leurs défauts. Chaque épisode offre un aperçu authentique de la manière dont ces individus, et par extension la société britannique, ont été façonnés par les événements de leur époque. Des protestations anti-Thatcher aux premiers émois amoureux, la série aborde des thèmes intemporels avec une sensibilité qui touche le cœur du public. Évidemment le spectateur évolue en même temps que Shaun. Des luttes sociales avec en fond une classe ouvrière de plus en plus en colère font écho toujours à la société d'aujourd'hui. Les questions de discrimination, d'injustice sociale, et de marginalisation demeurent des enjeux contemporains mis en avant tous les jours. Pourtant, c'est un véritable cri de ralliement que propose Shane Meadows en passant par l'humour et la satyre sociale. [bs_show url="this-is-england-86"] Ce n'est pas facile de résumer la force de This Is England et il faut voir cette série (qui ne prend pas trop de temps) pour se faire une idée du pourquoi elle illustre parfaitement la série sociale britannique. L'intégralité est disponible sur Arte.tv.

This Is England, director, Shane Meadows first masterpiece, retains immense power as a treatise on small town brutality and toxic masculinity, especially with the never better performance of Paddy Consadine.

Yorkshire born actor, Samuel Edward-Cook made his screen debut in the BBC One series LAND GIRLS, before landing the role of Danny Whizz-Bang in the highly acclaimed and BAFTA award-winning crime drama PEAKY BLINDERS alongside Cillian Murphy, Joe Cole and Helen McCrory. Other television credits include the ITV miniseries BRIEF ENCOUNTERS, the ITV anthology series INNOCENT, the long-running BBC series SILENT WITNESS, and the Channel 4 comedy-drama PURE. Samuel will soon appear playing Ceri Davies in BETTER, a BBC series by Sister Pictures, the production company behind THIS IS GOING TO HURT, CHERNOBYL and GANGS OF LONDON, among many others. The crime drama follows a corrupt police detective who undergoes a major moral awakening and makes amends of her wrongdoings of the past. The series will also star Leila Farzad (I HATE SUZIE), Andrew Buchan and Anton lesser. Also in 2023, Samuel will play Isaac Hartley in Shane Meadows' highly anticipated BBC drama THE GALLOWS POLE, based on the novel of the same name by Benjamin Myers. Loosely based on true events, the six-part series set in 18th century Yorkshire will recount the rise and fall of David Hartley and the Crag Vale Coiners. The series will also star Michael Socha (PAPILLON), George Mackay (1917), Thomas Turgoose (THIS IS ENGLAND), Tom Burke (THE SOUVENIR) and Sophie McShera (DOWNTON ABBEY). As well as his screen credits, Samuel has numerous theatre credits, including BOYS for Headlong, directed by Robert Icke, Matthew Quintal in Richard Bean's PITCAIRN directed by Max Stafford-Clark, TITUS ANDRONICUS at Shakespeare's Globe, Edmund in Lucy Bailey's contemporary adaptation of KING LEAR, staring David Haigh and portraying Captain Wentworth in the Royal Exchange Theatre production of PERSUASION. His performance as Haimon in Ivo van Hove's production of ANTIGONE alongside Juliette Binoche attracted rave reviews, with theatre critic Stephen Collins praising his “passion” and "extraordinary range of emotions”. The play itself was described as “undeniably impressive” by The Independent and as a "production that combines a sombre aesthetic beauty with a sense of the ambivalence at the heart of Sophocles's play” by The Guardian.

In this special live version of the show from Union Chapel in Islington, Mark reviews, ‘Master Gardener' - a film which follows a horticulturist devoted to tending the grounds of a beautiful estate owned by a wealthy dowager; ‘Hypnotic' which sees a detective investigating a mystery involving his missing daughter, and a secret government program; ‘The Gallows Pole' – which recounts the true story of a gang of land-workers in Yorkshire in the late 18th century, who embezzle the Crown. We also speak to Shane Meadows + Sophie McShera, the director and star of ‘The Gallows Pole'.

In episode 11, Johnny talks to skateboarding library archivist and fellow Auckland cinephile Jacob Powell. When he's not archiving materials at the University of Auckland Library, or skateboarding around Auckland's skate parks, Jacob can be found watching and writing about movies. In fact, Jacob was an OG user of Letterboxd from day one - and his interview on that journey can be found in the article Turning Ten: A Decade On Letterboxd.  This conversation was recorded face to face in mid-March of 2023. We talk about the films of Kelly Reichardt, Andrei Tarkovsky and Shane Meadows, and we get visited by the ghost of Mercedes McCambridge. Many thanks to James Van As who wrote and performed the brilliant music (check out James' brilliant Loco Looper game), and to Willow Van As who designed the amazing artwork and provided general podcast support.

Actor, writer and comedian James Corden reveals the most important people, events and cultural works that inspired his own creativity. He's now probably best known as an Emmy-winning television chat show host, although he recently announced that he would step down from The Late Late Show in 2023. James Corden is the co-creator of the much-loved BBC sitcom Gavin and Stacey, for which he won a BAFTA. His stage work includes Alan Bennett's National Theatre play The History Boys, and the starring role in One Man Two Guvnors, which won him a Tony Award after it transferred to Broadway. His film roles include Oceans 8, Peter Rabbit, Into The Woods and The Prom. James Corden reveals how he wanted to entertain audiences from a very young age, and his theatrical ambitions were encouraged by his father who would take him to see musicals. He chooses the experience of seeing Gary Wilmot starring in the stage show Me and My Girl as one of his most important inspirations. He also reflects on the experience of working for writer-director Shane Meadows on the film 24/7, which starred Bob Hoskins, and the huge influence on his own work of filmmaker Mike Leigh. James also chooses the television comedy drama series The Royle Family as one of the inspirations for his series Gavin and Stacey, which he co-wrote with Ruth Jones. Reflecting on his recent decision to leave The Late Late Show, he reveals that he was persuaded to move on and pursue new creative challenges by a David Bowie quote. Producer: Edwina Pitman

Hiyer mates. Happy Thursday. We've got an absolute banger for you this week. It's a chat with the completely brilliant Helen Behan. You might've seen her acting in Shane Meadows' 'This Is England' franchise or more recently in 'The Virtues' alongside Stephen Graham and previous TSP guest Niamh Algar. The unusual pathway into her acting career is a brilliant story that she tells with incredible aplomb. Helen is great craic. She joined Craig over zoom on a woozy, post-pub Sunday morning but that didn't diminish her charm and warmth. They talk improv, imposters, arseholes, pubs, methods, and loads, loads more. It's an episode we're dead excited for you to hear. This is series ten, episode seven of the Two Shot Podcast with Helen Behan.

This week, the two Canucks watch a British revenge thriller called Dead Man's Shoes - a movie which they have literally zero knowledge of going into it. They talk about how the movie plays on revenge and slasher tropes, they discuss the final twist, they wonder if Richard and Anthony were ever actually close or if the mission is out of obligation more than love and much more.   Next week: back to space!

1990. Well it certainly was time for the guru, but as the first year of the new decade was drawing to a close, it was time - a little time, if you will - for so much more. And as always, our favourite compilation series was there to capture it all.So volume 18 provided us with the NOW albums second numbered album of 1990 in the shape of big ballads, bigger ballads, pop, rock, dance, indie and even Timmy Mallet. Yes, all life forms were present and correct! Elton was BACK and, with Bernie Taupin, scoring his biggest hit in years (and a first solo No1!). Sinead was rewriting the Prince songbook and music video like no one else could, William Orbit was quietly ushering in the rest of the decade with some fascinating rhythms and Kylie was not only sidling nicely alongside her then boyfriend Michael in INXS, she was riding on the love train somewhere back in time.There were remixes and reissues aplenty too; best of albums for PiL and Talk Talk alongside (are we allowed to say indie dance?) excursions from The Cure, Sting and Suzanne vega were reminding us that the 80s were still a force to be remixed with.And so to step back in time to NOW18 in this episode we are joined by film and TV music supervisor Lucy Bright. Lucy started out at Mute Records working with artists such as Nick Cave and Depeche Mode, she then moved to Warner Classics for six years before leaving to manage composer Michael Nyman.In 2020 Lucy launched her own music publishing company, Bright Notion Music, which currently represents and nurtures some of the world's most influential artists and composers working today. And Lucy has music supervised some of the most critically-acclaimed British films and TV series of recent years: Samantha Morton's directorial debut The Unloved, Charlotte Wells' Cannes winning After Sun and both Shane Meadows's This is England ‘90 and The Virtues.So we can think of no one better to navigate us through an album chock filled with film and TV related tracks! Jeans! Pottery Wheels! Julia Roberts! Bridesmaids! Julian Temple in the desert! Tim Pope in a wardrobe! As well as deciphering these conundrums, Lucy also joyfully revisits her first (and only?) NOW album whilst delighting us with some wonderful and personal stories including guest appearances from Youth, James Mason, Prince (and a chocolate milkshake), Michael Hutchence, Shane Meadows and Holly Knight (she wrote some big songs, oh yes) to name but a few! 1990 - who has time for the guru with all of this going on?Jump straight back in to the wonderfully eclectic and memory packed NOW18!

Welcome to Series 4, episode 7 of Prompted by Nature. This week I have the privilege of releasing my conversation with writer Benjamin Myers. Ben Myers is a writer and journalist from Durham in the north of England. I'll let him introduce himself but his writing awards and accolades are intimidating - though well-deserved! - and his novel Gallow's Pole is about to be released as a TV series directed by Shane Meadows. We talked a lot about the novel The Perfect Golden Circle as well as Ben's relationship with the land and I loved hearing about the ways in which he finds inspiration. I really urge you to get hold of a copy of the book, via the library, your local bookshop or via bookshop.org and then post a glowing review of it on Amazon. Time flew when I read the book and I think you'll really love it. I've also started reading Under the Rock, which is a non-fiction piece and is just beautiful so I highly recommend having a look at that too! We discussed: His literary background The experience of having a book turned into a TV series The process of ‘letting go' as a writer How the idea for Perfect Golden Circle came about Art as an egotistical practice Crop circles as land art Landscape as character Land art and death of the author Whether the novel could have been written now His hope for the future What he's learnt I am a bit gutted I didn't ask him more about his own journey as a writer of a variety of genres but perhaps I'll get to interview him again one day and ask him all the questions I didn't get around to! Before the conversation he told me that he'd listened to a couple of the other conversations on the podcast so I thought I'd recommend them as they both tie in nicely with this episode. They were my interview writer Nick Hayes, episode 2.5a and my interview with land artist Rosalind Lowry, episode 3.7a and I also thought I'd link to another artist episode, which was 3.6a with Jamie Redway, who is an illustrator of the natural world and we have conversations around mindfulness and being out in nature as a creative practice. You can find Ben on Twitter @benmyers1 and on instagram @benmyers76 and over on his website www.benmyers.com As always, I'm on Instagram @prompted.by.nature and now on Twitter (let's see how it goes!) @promptedxnature and on my website www.promptedbynature.co.uk where you can find all the link to all the things! Remember to listen in to the writing prompt that follows this episode! Happy listening and I'll speak to you soon, Helen x
